3 castle adventure

We really enjoy visiting different castle and the kids enjoy it also. We decided to spend one Saturday visiting three different castles all within a couple hours of us. We aren't really into paying to go into the castles as the kids don't care and want to touch everything. We have been in one so far and we feel that is good enough for know. Mostly I'm going to post pictures as I don't know much about each castle.

The first castle we went to was Hohenzollern. We went there first because it was the farthest away There was a nice hike up to the castle but you couldn't really see much from the outside and there wasn't even a really good place to get a nice picture of the castle. It was a little disappointing.

The second castle we went to was the Lichtenstein Castle. Some people get confused thinking this castle should be in the country of Lichtenstein but it is in the middle of Germany.













I have seen the pictures of Lichtenstein castle on Pinterest and wanted to go for a while. You do have to pay a little fee to go to the castle and more if you want to go inside the castle. It is a short walk from the parking area that also has a restaurant to the castle. It also appeared the had a ropes course right there too. We decided to have lunch here before moving on the last castle of the day.




The last castle we went to was actually a castle ruin, our favorite type of castle. Burg Hohenneuffen is different then other castle ruins we have been too. This one hosts parties and has a restaurant. The other huge different between this castle and others is they had resident goats. The goats seemed friendly at first but then they seemed to turn on us. They were fun at first but after a while I wish they would of just gone away instead of falling us everywhere.
