As the name suggests, "Around the Castle" is a short circular hiking route around the Baroque castle Rammenau.

The hiking route, just over 2 km long, is largely barrier-free and therefore also ideal for outings with strollers and small children. 

Along the route around the castle, you pass the sheep pond and the wash pond, the demonstration beehive, and the Peace Oak. The parking lot at the castle can be used as the start and finish point.

Directions

The circular route can be walked in both directions. Starting from the parking lot, we head south and soon pass the Oak Dam. The path leads behind the castle park to the Peace Oak and then on to the Sheep Pond. From here, it goes to Oberrammenauer Street, which is briefly walked along. After about 200 meters, the path turns towards the Wash Pond and the Castle Rammenau.
