Directions:
From Stuttgart
Take the B27 South past T
übingen and on to Hechingen.  Take the Hohenzollern exit and follow the castle signs to the parking lot. 


 


Click on the "P" marking the marking lot below, to make use of the maps' "To Here" function.

The road to the castle ends in a parking lot three-quarters of the way up the hill.  Shuttle buses run regularly between the parking lot and the front gate.  You can also
take the footpath up the mountainside (approximately 15 minutes), but it is a very steep climb.  Even from the front gate, the path inside the castle corkscrews up through several more gates until you reach the upper courtyard.

The green icon marks the castle itself on the map, and the two "fork and knife" icons mark the castle restaurant and cafe.
