As part of my daily walking routine, I decided for a change of scenery yesterday and headed up to the medieval castle Frankenstein that was made famous by the Frankenstein stories. I have been here a few times in the past for family meetups with friends and for work dos.
This is because there is a pretty fancy restaurant there doing some very good quality food. As well as a restaurant, you can walk around the grounds and up and around the complete castle including the tower which gives a great view over the surrounding area. I have also been here before when there has been medieval music being played and the staff get into the spirit of things.
The opening times of the castle are sun up and sun down, but as it was off-peak when I arrived, the castle was closed to visitors and just the staff were leaving so I couldn't go inside this time. However, it was still a great time to visit because it was not so busy and there are many paths that you can take for a mountain forest walk.
After walking to the castle and getting some views from the viewing platform, I headed along the mountain paths southward and enjoyed some time walking in the forest. There is a forest club and they also take care of the forest and provide activities for visitors to enjoy. One such activity was a barefoot path with different materials that you can walk along in your bare feet. Although the weather was warm, I didn't fancy it today.
Another item I discovered was a rock where you put your head in it and take a deep breath and then it should re-calibrate your whole body. I didn't give that a try this time either. lol.
It was lovely a calm in the forest for this evening and there were a few hikers around but not many. Mostly there were quite a few mountain bikers as this is a popular area for mountain biking. The great thing about this walk was that it was more demanding than just walking around my town due to the hill and terrain. I came across many muddy paths that I needed to navigate!
After a while it started to get darker so I headed back. It was a nice long walk and great to enjoy a walk in the forest with the background of Castle Frankenstein.

You've got a good camera to be able to share this lovely images. The tower is quite tall and still look in good form. Thanks for sharing your experience friend
Thanks, the castle and tower is well maintained, although it can be scary climbing the tower if you are scared of heights.
Yeah, that's the downside of it.. but for someone like me that love to tour and explore new things, it will be great fun... Hope you enjoyed yourself?
I think you would like it for sure. I had a really great time and it was good to be surrounded by the nature with some great views. 😃
Yeah, nature is quite amazing and one will surely want to bask in it everyday of one gets the chance to
Yes now that spring is coming, it is a great time.
I know right, no problem, enjoy your time friend.
Wait, what? I've been in Germany over 20 years, and I have not visited Frankenstein Castle? That has to change this summer, indeed! 😉

.Very nice, do they have a museum inside? Judging by the movies, Frankenstein had some interesting apparatus. 😎🤣
I am not sure if there was a mueseum or more a tourist type shop. But there are some medieval torture devices. You can put your head in a vice etc! 😅
It’s nice to change our routine every now and again. It took you to a pretty castle this time round 💙
Yeah, I want to try and appreciate some of the nature and history nearby more this year. 😀
That sounds like a brilliant idea to me ☺️
This looks like in the middle of nowhere :P. interesting that this is actually near your house and walking distance o.o.
It is a long walk from my house, but maybe 25min drive or so. 😉
You walked all the way from your house? that's like 1 hour just commuting. Is it not hot there because if you did that in Malaysia you'd be sweating easily just being outside
Yeah I can imagine, I struggle to walk in the heat! I drove to the castle first then went for a walk ;)
These are amazing photos of a castle. They are always built to last of centuries.
Thanks, they say this one was first built over 800 years ago. There is plenty of history here. 😀
Wow! Now it is heading to 1000th years. Amazing!
I would love to visit such kind of place.
There are lots of castle, I do recommend to visit some.
All right buddy.
I saw the barefoot path label and was say what!
That sounds cool though, as I love to be barefooted whenever I can Steve!

Spooky!
At Halloween time it can get very spooky here!
Nice! Though... I am sure people can throw a decent party there too! lol
yeah we had a few parties up there, but there needs to be some drivers as it is a little remote.
Sounds like a plan!
I'd be more worried about swallowing a spider or something than I would about recalibrating my body if I stuck my head in a rock and took a deep breath! This looks like a really cool place. I can see how it would be the inspiration for the type of story that is associated with it!
my head is quite big, i hope it wouldnt get stuck in there. lol it is a great place to visit and I will come again.
Haha, yeah now that I think of it, mine is pretty big too!
Castle structure looks so old and beautiful. Surrounding nature also looks amazing.
Thanks, I do love the medieval buildings. The castle gate was still in use. The forest area is also very pretty, there are hikes all the way down to the black forest. Thanks for checking it out.
Wow that's cool that you can just walk around a medievel castle. We don't have anything that old here. Looks like a nice walk on the trails.
It is the land of castles here! I still want to go to the Neuschwannstein at some point. The trails are great but highly regulated as you can imagine!
Wow that's a really beautiful walk!
I really like your photos and I really like this place, seeing the pictures you posted made me really want to visit it... I'll organize myself!😉
Thanks, I am glad you liked it. It is a good sightseeing destination. :)
I don't see any Path. 🤔 At least I'm glad I don't find Frankenstein!

LOL, I have been in a few posts, but didn't take any selfies here 😅
That kind of place seems a very good place to take a walk specially in the afternoon times. But at the time of night, it could be horrible. Would you dare visit that forest at night time?
Photographs are well captured. I liked all of it.

I think it could be scary if Frankenstein would turn up. 😅 But in the daytime, it is a lovely place to visit. I am happy you like the photos. !PIZZA

Wunderschöne Impressionen hast du da eingefangen. Oh Frankenstein der SW Film war eines meiner Kindheit Traumas ;-D
Hab's heimlich mit einer Freundin angesehen während unsere Eltern aus waren... Und danach konnten wir nicht schlafen. LOL.. aber ja auch mit Eltern nicht darüber reden.
Fazit: Sowohl die alte gute Freundin als auch ich mögen keine Horror Geschichten. Bis heute nicht!

ohje, ich habe auch ähnliches gemacht! ich kann mir gut vorstellen, dass es eine Trauma war! Ich bin auch nicht so gut mit Horror Movies! Grueslig sind nicht gut für mich, aber ich habe nicht so viel angst wie vorher.
