October 3, 2025,Spessartspur "Ramholzer Schlosspark und Burg Steckelberg"

Yesterday it was a bit later, so we need a little exercise today. Ramholz Castle has been on my to-do list for a long time, the weather is perfect, and we have just enough time for the second-to-last stop. The castle is quite an eye-catcher. It's privately owned, we've read, so it's probably not usually a guided tour. It wasn't …

We set off in beautiful spring weather, heading from 🏰 Ramholz to the Steckelberg Castle ruins. Sturdy footwear is recommended. The trail is well signposted. Spring blooms line the path; a successful outing.

Also a very nice "track"!

#26 gone, 12 to go ✌️
(or are there new tracks that I don't know yet? 🙈)

Initially held up quite a long time at the starting point, because Ramholz Castle and the immediate surroundings are really beautiful 🏰😍

On my way home, I spontaneously took another stroll through Ramholz 😅...

Even though the sun was already setting, it was still great. 😊🏰🌇🤩
Wishing everyone a relaxing weekend 🙋🏼‍♀️

The Spessart trail “Ramholz Castle Park and Steckelberg Castle” has three special attractions to offer: the view of the dilapidated fairytale castle Ramholz, the climb to the half-ruined Steckelberg Castle and the path through the castle park with its old trees.

A nice varied trail, where there is always something to discover off the beaten track. The route can also be walked well in the sun, as it runs almost exclusively in the forest.
