    Mountaineering

    At the foot of the Stairway to Heaven and a little above the castle is the free hiking car park. There aren't many parking spaces, but there is usually something available. An absolute insider tip.

    The small car park above Heidelberg Castle is located right at the foot of the "Stairway to Heaven". The staircase made of natural steps leads steeply up to the "Königsstuhl". The "Neckarsteig" also begins at the car park, directly with the "Stairway to Heaven".
