Hiking

Schenkenburg was built around 1250. The stump of the keep still stands, as do parts of the palas, the former hall, which still reach up to 16 meters in height. The zwinger system is partially still present, but heavily overgrown. At the foot of the castle ruins, you will find an Italian restaurant. It is closed on Tuesdays.

Hiking

Easily reachable after a short climb. Beware, the stair stones are very slippery when wet. Good that a retaining steel cable has been installed.
The many information boards are very informative and well illustrated.
