Hohenzollern Castle is about an hour and half drive south of Stuttgart. I visited there thismpast February - will post up picks of the castle and the surrounding forest with the crystallized snow on the branches - it was truly magical. Didn't do the tour since in the off season they only do tours in German. Hiked up to the castle - was quite a hike in the cold winter air. Walked around the carle grounds - was really a neat experience.

Was a highlight of my last business trip there.
Going to Berlin soon for another business trip - any ideas for that city?
