Hiking

The largest castle complex in the Palatinate lies to the east above Dahn. Its oldest parts date from the 11th century. The Dreierburg, built on free-standing, steep cliffs, is a typical Wasgauburg with chambers, stairs and passages carved into the rock. Guided tours of the castle for groups possible by appointment.

The castle Altdahn is the ruin of a rock castle in the southern Palatinate Forest, the German part of the Wasgau (Rhineland-Palatinate). Source & more: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burg_Altdahn

The castle ruin is a highlight for young and old, there are many angles and corners to climb and some dark chambers to explore ... ;-) In addition, you have a wonderful view from up here.
