Sentiero Rilke and Duino Castle

From an infopoint that points out the Rilkeweg, the Alpe-Adria-Trail running parallel here, as well as the region's World War history, you start off by clearly following a path to the right. First, the flat, wide path leads past cliffs and a campsite, then the ground becomes rockier and wilder. Now forest alternates with great views. A few weak paths branch off to the right, but the main path is clear. Shortly before Duino, the path meets a wider gravel road, which we follow to the left. The castle is already within reach, but we have to go down a flight of stairs and to the right onto the main street of the town to avoid private property. After about 100 meters, a gate to our left marks the entrance to the castle. Coming out of the castle gate, we must follow the sloping street to the left towards the castle ruins. We ignore the junction 10 meters beside the gate and take the next junction about 150 meters later. The road becomes a path leading to the ruins.

Return on the same way.
