Directions
Start at the tourist information office. Straight ahead past the fountain you cross Karlsbader Platz, follow Moselstraße and (Old) Römerstraße. The path continues to the double cross and along Burgstraße to the eastern portal of the Burgbergtunnel. There you cross the main road and a few meters later you enter the city forest. If you wish, you can soon turn left into a path that leads down to the Tiefenbach stream and to the small waterfall of the stream. Otherwise you continue straight on to the Tinkel chapel, where shortly before you will also find a path from the brook valley leading up from the waterfall. At the chapel you turn sharp right into the tarred road and follow it uphill until the first bend. Here the forest path branches off to Landshut Castle. You walk around and visit the castle (not signposted). At the castle entrance follow the asphalt road downhill towards the Moselle (Schlossweg). After a detour to the St. Anna chapel you continue to descend the tarred path and turn from Schlossweg into Karlstraße. It leads to the medieval market place at the Spitzhäuschen, where the signs end.Public transit
