The best time to visit Burg Eltz castle is early in the morning, so you have the whole castle to yourself. Burg Eltz is called Germany's most beautiful castle by many. Located on a forest-covered hill, Burg Eltz towers beautifully above the landscape. When you walk along the stone path, the only access road to the castle, you look down into the depths on both sides. Consequently, this path is one of the most popular viewpoints to take a photo.
