Drachenfelsbahn is a historic railway. If it is out of service, the driver will get you as close to Drachenburg Castle as possible, but you may need to walk uphill for about 10–14 minutes.

Don't let extreme weather spoil your experience, check the forecast and dress appropriately for the conditions, rain or shine. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes.
