From Hohenschwangau, the path leads steeply uphill to the Jugend bus stop, where buses stop that take visitors to Neuschwanstein Castle. From the Brunnstubenweg gradually leads up to the high valley of Bleckenau. Once pass the Neuschwanstein Castle, it welcomes you serenity as you leave behind the bustle of everyday life. After the ascent through the mountain forest, the landscape widens and reveal an awesome impressive view of the rocky peaks, with mighty maple trees on the flat valley floor. Maximilian II had the 'Schweizerhaus' specially built around 1850 for his wife Marie, which King Ludwig II eventually used it as a hunting lodge - today's mountain inn Bleckenau. After a hearty snack, you may return on the Bleckenau road to the starting point or take the Bleckenau bus.
