Description
In the area around the Rifenstein ruin, with many rocks, dark forest, mist veils, and mystical, secluded places, many legends have been preserved. The Rifenstein legend route is dedicated to these stories. Along the way to the castle, several well-equipped fire pits are available. The Rifenstein ruin is located on a steep rock nose and offers a wonderful view. It is accessible via several steep and narrow staircases and is always open. However, those who want to explore the castle should be sure-footed. The hike includes several places with steep stairs. Children must be supervised at all times when visiting the Rifenstein ruin.
