Touringen Stempelstelle 54, unfortunately the stamp pad is currently dry. Better bring your own small stamp pad

As in many places, there is also a fantastic view down into the valley here.

Definitely worth a detour if you're in the area. On our checkpoint tour, we had to climb up to the castle after 200 km, which was quite a challenge. Highly recommended!

The sun terrace doesn't offer much space. If you do manage to find a seat, you can truly enjoy the beautiful sunshine with a view of the Saale Valley. The spot is located outside the entrance fee-based area of the castle complex.

In 2005, Australian racing cyclist Amy Gillet was killed here during a training ride. The route also seems to be dangerous in other ways; I saw two more crosses between Quingenberg and Wenigenauma...
