Overview
Enjoy an unparalleled experience with us:
Combine the world-famous Neuschwanstein castle (incl. GUARANTEED SKiP-THE-LINE admission) with a most spectacular feat of engineering:
The 114m (374 ft) high & over 400m (1,300 ft) long "Highline 179" is one of the longest pedestrian suspension bridges in the world!
It stands in exciting contrast to King Ludwig II's fairytale castle in medieval design. During the included tour of the interiors, learn how the tech-loving king turned NEUSCHWANSTEIN into a high-tech castle.
Just a few minutes' drive away is: THE BRIDGE - Crossing this imposing steel construction secured with 8 rock anchors is not for the faint of heart – ADRENALINE KICK HERE WE COME! Due to the high safety railings with netting it is completely safe, even for children! And it is open all year round.
If you suffer from fear of heights, you can admire this masterpiece from numerous vantage points - such as the 700-year old castle ruin EHRENBERG - without ever setting foot on it!
