From the castle, only a small remnant of a wall in the rock on the hill remains. Otherwise, it's more of a castle site. However, the impressive, striking rock formation next to it is notable.

Your next hiking route: From Burdorf via the individual Fluen in the direction of Hasle and then in the direction of Emme and Emmenweg back to Burgdorf. This route is super beautiful and includes almost everything. Dirt road, short steep climbs, longer flat sections, a river and lots of nature. Everything a hiker's heart desires.

Well-known vantage point in Affoltern in the Emmental at 890 m above sea level. This used to be a so-called Hohwacht on which an alarm fire was lit in the event of war.
