Very road-heavy hike. There was less traffic than expected, so 👍. Beautiful scenery, impressive castle. (We also saw "Little Uncle" 😉)

Not a nice tour. You walk almost exclusively on the street, which is sometimes really dangerous as there is no pedestrian path. Dogs are not allowed in the castle, which is why we could only see the castle from the outside.
