Unfortunately, the bridge has changed a lot from the pictures and no longer looks as exotic as it once was. It's a shame that the people there do so little to maintain the facility.

Reminds of past times. The stairs next to the stones lead from one forest path to the next. If you are heading towards the castle, a romantic bridge follows shortly …

Landsberg Castle Gate

Highlight • Monument

As a detour from Hugenpoet Castle, you can walk through the gate relatively comfortably to Landsberg Castle. There is a parking lot in the immediate vicinity on August-Thyssen-Strasse for those who wish to hike less long.
