Blog Info
I love Castles, History and Archaeology, If I could have my time again I would train to be a Archaeologist!
I am a keen artist and traveller, I seek adventure however I am also disabled and a dog owner.So I thought it would be a neat idea to have a blog that I could share some photos of my castle hunting adventures and basic info on these sites from a disabled, dog owning artist!Cadw Offers Disabled people and there companion Free access to there sites, If you have any problems, attitude or access on this generous offer make sure you contact Cadw so they can improve.
I have only provided basic info as there are enough sites on the net to give you this information.
http://cadw.wales.gov.uk/?lang=enThis Castle Wales Site is brilliant, I have used it time and time again, even writing to the makers to compliment themwww.castlewales.com
Neuschwanstein Castle
There is a large well surfaced car park
Access is up a very steep & lengthy hill, there is a shuttle bus or horse and carriage service at a small charge (6 Euros up 3 euros down))
Once at the top access is good as mostly level
Brilliant for rainy days
No dogs allowed
Carer gets in free
Toilets
You can only view this castle via a tour, this is rushed and sadly you really don't see the castle as well as one would hope. the tour involves over 100 steps up and thus down
There are lots of resting area's outside the castle but none while doing the tour
Best Bit - The views of the castle from Marienbrücke ( Marys Bridge) you need to be very mobile to get to this bridge ( I couldn't do it so much husband took the photo below)
