Eisenach - Wartburg Castle

We ran out of propane that night, so I decided to drive us to a nearby McDonalds. Erfurt is about the size of Milton, and from what we saw at night, we decided to check out a nearby Castle instead of visiting the town. Wartburg castle is another Unesco world heritage site. That being said, they charged for pretty much everything, even a climb up a tower. Julie is starting to hate Unesco sites, they seem restricted and expensive. We made the hike up the long road to the castle only to learn that they had parking further up the road (it had a barrier when we arrived, but was gone when we left). Even though the hike took a bit out of us, it was extremely worth it. We had a great view of the castle from below and a nice hike through the forest. It’s still a bit cold and there are so many leaves on the ground now. Once we got to the castle we found that it wasn’t all that exciting. Our next stop for the day was Bamburg.
