    Not too long of a trail, but very steep climb getting up to the castle. Some rock scrambling & lots of uneven steps to climb. We took the steps going up and an easier trail coming back. The views are worth it. So much history here.

    Not a short climb, a bit difficult for those who are not in shape but possible. Preferably hiking shoes, sneakers will also do 😉. The view is worth the effort don't miss it.
