Stockenfels Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The castle ruins are always a highlight. There is a lot to discover. The trails down are then the "treat" on top.

Beautiful tour through forests and along the Regen in the bright winter sun.🙂

June 3, 2023,Ruine Stockenfels – Burgruine Stockenfels Runde von Stefling

The profile of the tour is classified as moderate.
The ruins of Stockenfels Castle are not accessible.
You will also look in vain for a nice place to rest.
Views of the countryside none.
The last stretch on the Regen river is mostly out of sight of the water body.

June 2, 2026,Ritter- und Geisterpfad ab Stefling/ Nittenau

Why the tour is called that - no idea (planned and named by Komoot).
No knights at the castle ruin Stockenfels who opened the gate for us.
And ghosts - no trace, only countless flowers along the wayside.

The Stefling Castle also remained locked - it is privately owned.

Thanks to @Hummel Richard, @OutdoorAndrea and others, I walked this pleasant, almost-only forest path and enjoyed it 🙏❤️, even though I didn't see any ghosts or knights 😉

June 7, 2026,Regental Rundwanderung zur Burgruine Stockenfels (Tag der offenen Tür)

Today our group of 6 went to Regental, to Stefling. From there we started our circular hike to the Stockenfels castle ruins, which today had a kind of "open house". Normally it is closed most of the time. It was very interesting, because on this occasion you could also learn something about the background history of this robber baron castle. …

It's always nice in the rain...
And in these conditions, even boring forest roads are a dream! Unfortunately, the gps spun something in the Regental.
