Re: Walk from Jugend Point to Castle Posted: Wed August 22, 2007 01:59 AM UTC
I walked UP to the castle to give the horses a break (poor things!), in my twenties, and it's an exercise, especially under a hot sun! even for active people.
I don't remember walking DOWN from the Jugend but it's 1,312 feet to the castle and the official site says "not suitable for anyone who has difficulty walking and elderly people." I would take their word for it.
The view from Marien Bridge is awesome. It's 295 feet above the Gorge and could give anyone vertigo. I did that "hike" but wouldn't take my active mother there.
Then there are 170 steps INSIDE the castle, better save some energy :)
