I took a walk around town today. Füssen has a truly beautiful old town with many sights. I then walked out to the castles of Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein. I only looked at them from the outside. I'd been inside many years ago. The weather was moderate. Some of it was quite good.

Such a beautiful trip today!
From Seeg by train to Füssen and off we went in the direction of the royal castles of Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein Castle. Right through the winter wonderland. We were so smart and started early. That was absolutely right. From 10 a.m. onwards, everything was heading upwards. By then we had already passed through all the …

Since the day wasn't going to be particularly dry either, we made the most of the rain-free window 🌧️☔️ to show our friends Ludwig's Schlössle, at least from the outside, and also the Marienbrücke... I didn't feel safe with so many people 🤯
The hike through the forest to the parking lot was really nice though 🤩 and we arrived …

Visit son in Augsburg. Detour to Neuschwanstein, Hohenschwangau and Lechfall. I think that's what it's called.
Had a great tour when the weather was nice. However, part of it is by car. You don't really believe that I can hike that fast.
🤣... Happy Easter everyone

Today there was a "sightseeing tour". We looked at the beautiful old town in Füssen and went past the Schwanensee to Hohenschwangau. Before that we were at Calvary, which is beautifully designed and also offers a great view.
In the afternoon we had a ticket for Hohenschwangau Castle, there was still enough time beforehand and we accidentally discovered that the …
