Climbing route in Kreuzbachklamm
Highlight • Climb
The Kreuzbachklamm requires sturdy shoes and a bit of stamina for the ascent, but there is no more storm damage (a bridge was left sawed into pieces, the path leads a few meters around it).
The "via ferrata" is easy to master and easy for dogs to bypass.
The path is not only suitable for prams.

View of Reichenstein Castle
Highlight • Viewpoint
Besieged and destroyed in 1282. Due to a ban on reconstruction, a new castle with a double ring wall and residential tower was not built until after 1344.
The castle was left to decay from the 16th century onwards and was blown up in 1689 during the War of the Palatinate Succession.
The castle was given its current appearance by Baron Nikolaus von Kirsch-Puricelli, a wealthy industrialist and owner of the Rheinböllerhütte, who had a neo-Gothic residential castle in the English style built by the Regensburg architect Strebel from 1899 to 1902. Further residential buildings and an observation tower were built on the site of the outer bailey. Reichenstein was the last castle in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley to be rebuilt in the spirit of Rhine Romanticism.
Today, the complex houses a castle museum with a large collection of historical weapons and armor as well as cast-iron slabs from the Stromberger Neuhütte and the Rheinböllerhütte, a restaurant and, since the end of 2015, a hotel. The living quarters in the castle have been preserved as they were over a hundred years ago. Weddings can still be held in the castle chapel and the old rooms.
