The castle hermitage of Altdahn is definitely worth a visit. At the end of April 2017 we had Weissherbstschorle and a delicious, grilled sheep's cheese. Mhhmmmmm 🙂 The sanitary facilities were very clean. We will definitely go there again.

Also this rock can be climbed through quite steep stairs (almost ladders). The view is worthwhile!

Dahner PWV hut "Im Schneiderfeld"

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Good cuisine in a wonderful location. Children's playground available. Plenty of outside and inside seating.

Addendum 2020: Still unreservedly recommended even after the third visit. The cherry and cheesecake were delicious.

A very nice hike. Many paths, many beautiful rocks, beautiful castles and many beautiful views. It got through to me when I was taking the picture. I probably overdid it a bit. Unfortunately, Komoot again failed to record parts.
