Our hike to an old tumbledown castle

A week ago we did another exploration of our neighborhood, this time to the ruins of the Hohensax castle.
 This railroad crossing is just a short walk from the house, and we drove on farm roads to the base of the mountains!






 The cows were dining on buttercups, mountain grasses and other wildflowers.


 Time for a picnic snack on the way up.  The hike was a little more than we had bargained on ;)

 Further up we entered a steep and ancient forest.

 And then, finally, the castle!  And a big picnic lunch.
