Route

Start

Königsstuhl
50.28227, 7.61358

This part of Germany has an obsession with calling everything Königsstuhl (King's chair) if a king has gone anywhere near it. This is no exception.

Solzenfells
50.30306, 7.59186

Not really a castle, but a palace built in the 19th century. And very beautiful.

Rittersturz
50.32806, 7.58222

After WWII, the allies decided to make West-Germany a democratic country in a hotel that used to be here. Now there are some stone pillars and a nice viewing point.

Kurführstliches Schloss
50.35557, 7.60226

Deutches Eck
50.36410, 7.60545

This is a very touristy spot. And I don't really understand why.
