If you can only recognize slight similarities between the three hill castles, don't doubt yourself: The name does not refer to their appearance, but to a legendary event—a lightning strike that is said to have hit all three castles simultaneously. Fans of medieval buildings can explore two ruins and one well-preserved castle on this route, each offering great views. Those interested in geology will find fascinating specimens in the exposures of the Middle Keuper, while botanical enthusiasts can enjoy, among other things, species-rich steppe grasslands, wetlands in old peat pits, and service tree-elm-oak forests.
We walk down the small road from the parking lot, under the highway, and straight across the following intersection. Behind another intersection at the Gräfenbrunnen, we take the field path half left, which leads almost directly to Wachsenburg. We leave a still water body on the right and choose a cross path to the right 300 m behind it. It describes a left curve in which we ignore one fork and only keep right at the second fork. After 200 m, we turn left and hike uphill on a ridge (!) towards Veste Wachsenburg. We make a note of a fork to the right leading to the alabaster quarry for later; shortly after, we reach a paved country road that takes us left up to Veste Wachsenburg.We return on the same path to the fork to the alabaster quarry, which we follow south to shortly switch to a path descending half right after a few meters.

Sabine Gilcher
Sabine Gilcher, Jahrgang 1962, wuchs im bayerischen Alpenvorland auf, mit einem Hochmoor direkt vor der Haustür, den Osterseen gleich um die Ecke und den Bergen immer in Sichtweite. Die Liebe zur Natur wurde daher früh geweckt und später im Studium der Landespflege vertieft. Heute lebt sie als Landschaftsplanerin in Freiburg im Breisgau. Ein Aufenthalt als Erntehelferin auf einem Bauernhof in Norwegen weckte die Liebe zu Skandinavien. Seit mehr als 30 Jahren bereist sie Europas Norden und Nordwesten und lässt sich jedes Mal von Neuem von den dortigen Landschaften faszinieren. Ihre Hobbys Wandern und Fotografieren sind die ideale Kombination zum Erstellen der Wanderführer für den Rother Bergverlag und das Wissen um ökologische Zusammenhänge kommt ihr sowohl im Gelände als auch beim Verfassen der Wanderführer sehr zustatten.
