From the Lindenhof stop it's 36 minutes+ up a small slope. It's okay in itself, but you're running for a long time in the blazing sun. There are small sections with bushes in between. As often mentioned in reviews, not good signage. Google Maps pointed me to the busy road and wanted me to somehow climb into the bushes. (?) I then took the normal hiking trail, which was very long and steep. Unfortunately, I walked past the castle because the castle hiking trail was quite hidden and just a trail. It's a shame, I was very happy.

A worth seeing but remote ruin. The moat and the main castle are still well preserved. The complex must have been very large with the outer bailey. You cross a large ditch on the way to the castle. With these 2 moats and the 3m thick palace wall, the castle must have been difficult to crack. We started from the Bohnerzpfad where there are public parking spaces. The path to the ruins takes a good 20 to 25 minutes. Don't be surprised, but it goes downhill a bit and then goes uphill again. I wouldn't advise anyone to go from the valley up to the castle. If you want to stop at the Rossbergschenke, you should of course go to the castle from there, as time goes on there's no point.

It's just gigantic - this nature, the colors, impressions and views. It's best to start at the "Im See" car park. Good footwear is a MUST. First go to the biotope - your heart opens. After crossing the road: keep left, right into the forest. In addition, you can also walk along the wide path “next to the water”. Enjoy the peace, be quiet, what colors. You can hear the babbling of the stream, the chirping of the birds - just listen to the language and voices of nature. Always upwards. At the fork: keep left, half left, straight ahead after the blue arrow. Then it comes, the ruins. But: we are not there yet. We still have to ON this thing: then the moment comes - this view. In good weather: Alpine views. And again - enjoy the peace and quiet. Think about WHAT you see - even in secret. Yes, even the little chapel near Albleiten greets you on the mighty tree - you can see all the way to Erzingen. The place with the huge, impressive old building - and everything that goes with it. A sight that moves me. And I keep saying and thinking: we live where others go on vacation. And I gratefully appreciate it. Do vacationers - who are slaves to their cell phones - also agree with me? Let's get going on the descent. But not back the same way. NO, it HAS to be the narrow path into the valley. I won't rave any further, everyone has to experience their own impressions. We cross the meadow on the road and, thinking about what we have experienced, walk along the newly designed hiking trail (which soon leads to Jestetten) back to the parking lot. Yes, there are so many beautiful hikes from here too. Just take the time to do it. There are so many wonderful MTB options here! There are even said to be MTB riders who dare to make the rest of the way from the ruins into the valley. There are times when you have to “see” the path. I took a chance, but let it go. I gave up after 50 m. Wanted to try it once during the week. I don't dare do it - not just out of respect for hikers: also out of concern for my bike :-) I also love MTB riding, but precisely out of respect: PLEASE NOT. Better only with your best friend and be careful towards others. On solid paths. Even my almost 84-year-old mother fought and was deeply moved. Hats off to her.

Parking possible at the nearby inn, accessible via a gravel path. The ruins are easy to find and the path is also suitable for children. The ruin itself is in a very quiet location and very little visited during the week. The view in good weather is ok. Definitely worth a trip.
