Neu-Falkenstein Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Coming from the Upper Hauenstein there is a great view of the rugged Jura rocks on which the castle ruins sit boldly. Since the route is well paved (06/2019) and leads slightly downhill, you can enjoy the view appropriately.

View of Nunningen

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice and challenging ascent to the Nunningerberg. Right at the beginning juicy two-digit percentages, in the upper third then rather flat up to the "mountain pass".

Today we went via Nunnigenberg, Passwangstrasse to the Brunnersberg from Mümliswil. Nice to drive on the Brunnersberg almost no cars or motorbikes (driving ban). Brunnersberg from Mümliswil is a little longer but less steep.

At 905 meters above sea level: 🥶🥶, because we're totally sweaty. So put on our warm jacket and gloves again and …
