Taking a rest by Schloss (castle) Frankenstein. Yeh, legends happened there. Tonnes of great biking trails around it.
A chapel next to Castle Frankenstein. Just south of Darmstadt, Germany.
The horrible view from atop Frankenstein’s Schloss. We even had the misfortune to catch a sunset..
So, apparently at the chapel at the top of Frankenstein’s hill, where lots of people get married. I guess I can see the novelty in that…
Another day up Frankensteins back. Mountain biking.
Near Frankenstein’s castle, there was a monument. I thought it looked like a giant sword.
Day two: at the top of Frankensteins Castle stopping for a spell to hydrate and prepare for the downhill grade. We actually did the hill twice. The locals nickname the hill “ass raper” cause it’s that fun to ride up.
So, they say that Frankenstein’s Castle is host to one of the longest Halloween parties in Europe. It lasts for four weeks.
One hell of a group of bikers. These boys tackled one hell of a hill leading up to Frankenstein’s Castle, just south of Darmstadt. We finished the better part of the day off at a Gelato place. A great day of biking was had!
The view from the top of Frankenstein’s Castle. In the distance is where I came from, and where I do return.
Frankenstein’s Castle. I kid you not. South of Darmstadt, Germany.
