A very comprehensive self guided audio tour of one of the largest castle ruins in the area. Well worth a visit, easy to spend a half day here, great spot for a picnic.

Don't expect lots to do here but there is a movie room, a small exhibition, lots of information on the fortress and it's inhabitants (and prisoners such as Richard the Lionheart) and a picnic area. The view, however, is absolutely breathtaking and well worth the hike! There's (paid) parking just a few minutes (as in: short but steep climb) away from the entrance but I suggest parking a bit further out and hiking to the fortress as the forest is tranquil and beautiful! In any case, Ladies, I recommend sneakers, no matter which option you pick. You can buy snacks and souvenirs at the paid parking area but I suggest packing a picnic and making use of the fortress's picnic tables.

NIce Hike. Interesting interpretive signage. And there's a little restaurant up there with a beautiful view of the valley

The Altdahn Castle is one of the best castles we visited in the region. The views are amazing and there are many little hidden areas to climb and discover. Not very busy so you feel like you have the place to yourself!
5. Frankenstein Castle

The walk/hike to get to this free attraction was a little unnerving with my little kids (and is not good with a stroller). Once we made it to the top, it was great. You can explore the ruins of Frankenstein castle and the kids loved it. The views are really pretty.
