Bogenneck Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Denkenbach Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

A beautiful path leads up along the gorge. Again and again there is an insight into rocks and the Denkbach. There is also enough moss, rocks and dead wood.

A very entertaining hike over the Boller Felsen to what was once the largest castle in Bogeneck, then on to the Denkenbach Gorge. The seas of flowers can currently be admired. There are enough rest areas and barbecue areas.....very suitable for children because the route is not too long 👍😎
