We found that the parking here is chaotic - no system in place to manage spaces which leads to long delays getting in - suggest avoid 11-13 slot and then it frees up. It’s a spectacular castle which… Full review by pnetster
In case small children cannot walk too uphill: - can I drop them in front of the castle entrance and then look for parking or still they will need uphill walk (how much??) - how many stair UPHILL in the castle? - what hours great chances to find parking right next to castle entrance (End September)? - What to write in WAZE/GOOGLE Maps to get the right spot?
A:
Only disabled parking at top. If they can't manage to walk to the castle then it's maybe not worth taking them as there is a lot of walking around it.
Hello, We will be visiting the castle in December 2019. I have 1 question concerning the shuttle: is the stop for the shuttle outside of arrivals at the Selestat train station? I'm asking because we are on a tight train schedule and don't want to search for the stop for risk of missing it. Please reply at your earliest convenience; thank you in advance for your help. Sincerely, Anna(Canada)

Hi Anna, I'm sorry I don't know about the shuttle or trains. We drove from our daughter's house in Strasbourg. I hope you can find out.
Hello, I will be travelling with my family to Colmar in December and would like to go out to Haut-Koenigsbourg on a weekday (Tues 18) which is when this would be possible but I cannot find any tours/transport that seem to operate on weekdays in December. Is this correct? Is there any other way of getting to the castle from Colmar? Unfortunately we will not have a car. Thanks in advance!
A:
Looks like the shuttle is not running on weekdays. Maybe a taxi from Selestat station?
