Great views and great nature and sometimes a little bit adventure
The ruins are very nice, not as impressive as Castle Neuschwanstein but quite nice 😉. From the ruins you have a great view at the valleys and the reservoir. You have to cross the little river two times, so prepare to get of your shoes.
Nice walk with lovely scenery.
A couple of river crossings so prepare for getting wet feet.
Since the fires part of the route was a bit difficult to navigate but only a 10 minute section near the top.
