The circular hike on the Argenschwang Rosenburg path lasts around 2 hours and is dedicated to Rosenburg. Argenschwang Castle was built in the 12th century by the Counts of Sponheim and was first documented in 1195. Apart from wall remains, only the three-storey former gatehouse from the 17th century with the coat of arms relief has been preserved from the castle complex.
Author’s recommendation
During the summer months, the outdoor pool in Argenschwang attracts visitors. There you can cool off after the hike or stop for a refreshing drink.
