👍👍 We visited with our kids (13 & 11) who loved exploring the area by themselves. There are two main routes through - one up, and one down. We were there on a quiet day, but still felt as if we were trying to find our own space and pace on the routes. I imagine when it’s busier that it may feel a littl...

👍 Def worth a stop and the hike, great views of the valley and very romantic settings, walkway well secured with handrails, but lots of steps, be careful if you want to climb the könig Ludwig Rock, enjoy

👍👍 Another fabulous castle brought to you by princess Wilhelmine of Bayreuth! This castle is thousands of years old and you can wander around it. 😃There is a short introduction in German then you are left to adventure through the structures on your own. Outside there is an amazing park with walking tr...

👍👍 Vom Wanderparkplatz Hohenhard aus sind es genau 4 km bei moderater Steigung zum Oberpfalzturm. Auf halber Strecke kann man die wunderbare Burgruine Weißenstein besichtigen. Am Ziel angekommen bietet sich ein herrlicher 360°-Blick vom überdachten Turm aus. Dabei kann es oben sehr windig sein.

Ruins of an 11th-century hilltop castle featuring a tower that offers panoramic views.

Ornately decorated palace, once home to the Dukes of Coburg, housing art by Dutch & Flemish masters

👍👍 Great cave with stalagmites and stalactites. 350m long doesn't feel like a lot but there's plenty to see. I was quite impressed as my memories of when I was last there about 40 years ago had long faded.

Deep, multi-chambered cave with limestone formations, stalactites & stalagmites, plus bear skeleton.

👍👍 Dieses Museum ist ganz wundervoll. Man erfährt viel um das Thema Comics und deren entstehungsgeschichte. Einen Spaziergang mitten durch Entenhausen zu machen ist auch ein tolles Erlebnis gewesen. Und wenn man genügend Zeit einplant, kann man sich zum Schluss noch in die Bibliothek setzen und durch g...

Animal enclosures interspersed with flower beds, plus a lake, aviary & playground, within a park.

👍👍 Unfassbar daß es so etwas mal gegeben hat, aber die Menschheit lernt auch niemals aus. Daher müssen wir uns auch in Zukunft auf Überraschungen gefasst machen... Es ist schön, dass noch so viele Relikte vor Ort vorhanden und einsehbar sind. Ein landschaftlich schönes Museum mit einer traurigen Gesch...
