Neu Falkenstein

Country forums / Western Europe / Switzerland

Has anyone been to the ruin of Neu Falkenstein? My elderly father wants to visit it as part of his "bucket list" and we understand that there is a bit of a walk/hike/climb involved. I'd like to know how challenging the walk is, and if there are any benches along the way. He is still very mobile, but old and has emphysema.

Thanks!

The ruin is 70 metres above the valley and the path seems to be easy.
