Himmelsleiter
About
If you feel more energetic, you can take the Himmelsleiter (Heaven's Ladder or Sky Ladder) -- a stairway of 1200 steps winding up 270 meters (890 ft) up to Königstuhl. It ends 10 meters east of the mountain top funicular station. The lower end of stairs is just above the castle, but a bit hidden - ask locals or look it up on this map.
