Perhaps it is better not to go there without preparation, uphill, then downhill and uphill again. Not everyone can do it. But the ruins are worth it. Unfortunately, they are poorly looked after, they are slowly being destroyed. The lower platform has benches, a trash can and a grill area. Climbing up the stairs, which is quite steep, you will reach the tower. From there, a gorgeous view of both Switzerland and Germany. Parking is not provided anywhere, there are signs, but not often, and at first we went to the wrong place, we had to return. From the village to the ruins about 2 km through the forest.

Immer wieder ein lohnendes Ziel zu jeder Jahreszeit. Tolle Aussicht vom Turm.

Very worth seeing ruin. It is best to park in the hiking car park at the end of Wehr. From here you can get to the ruins on both paths that lead away from here after a walk of just over 2km (of course only uphill). The ruins from the 12./13. Century consists essentially of a tower and some masonry. If you climb the tower you have a sensational view over the Rhine Valley/Wiesental/Wehratal. There is no restaurant in the vicinity, so you should stock up before you start ?

Beautiful medieval tower. The Alps are visible from the top. At the foot there is a hearth for a fire

Very nice hiking trail, very nice view. I didn't find the geocach, but the trip was really worth it.
