Beautiful observation area that overlooks the river and the city. The landscape is beautiful with the castle overlooking it all. Free to access, uncluttered gravel/dirt walking path, plenty of benches and shaded areas to sit, and trash cans.

Must visit when in Heidelberg. Views are spectacular! Review visit in April. Quiet time of year

Beautiful views of the castle and the city from up here. It can be a bit of a steep walk if you come from the castle but it’s worth it.

Beautiful view of the city from the castle gardens. Ideal place to got with friends or family, some food and spend time there. Best time for photos? Early in the morning or just at sunset time. For a few ours in the afternoon the sun will be facing your camera.

The best views in the whole Heidelberg! Follow the arrows for "Berg gartens" and you will get there. There is no fee to visit. It is about 10 minutes of walking from the city center up write steep hill. I think you will observe castle better from here than from the castle courtyard itself. It is also nice place for a walk or run.

Very beautiful place to visit in Germany.

Worth visiting this place. Very nice place to get a good view of the city free of cost.

The most picturesque view of the old part of the city!

General ticket lets you ride 1/2 up. It then cost $19 euros for a round trip to the top.

Beautiful location. All kids of stores and food to pick from.😊 Germany feels like home!!💙💙💙

It has the best view of heidelberg. we were lucky to see a planned proposal, but we weren't lucky enough to see the luck girl. I hope she said yes. If you have a chance to visit this place please don't hesitate .

Great view from the terrace overlooking the city, the old bridge, the river and the castle. Must visit when in Heidelberg. Easy strolling with good pathways from the main square. Nice to catch sunset here and when the city turns the lights on.

The view here is amazing! You can see all of old Heidelberg! The gardens are lovely to walk trough and it’s a great place to relax or have a picnic! It’s magical, especially at sunset when after it’s dark all the lights turn on!

Breathtaking view with the castle and the river flowing through the town. I really liked it.

Gives a cinematographic view of the beautiful city of Heidelberg. Also a great place for a picnic with a lot of trees for shade. A good place to see the new year's fireworks. Overall its pretty all year around.

The city of Heidelberg is very beautiful and charming. It is a wonderful castle.

Really cool place to go. From this view, you can see 80% of all best places to go in Heidelberg. I really loved it. The view, its air and atmosphere were really awesome. We plan to go to König Stuhl next time. It was the only thing we could not see fron there. Only cons would be parking lots. It is difficult to find one on weekends and also tooo expensive. 1€ per 20 minutes of parking.

Beautiful place and Beautiful view 😍

Beautiful place with the best view over the city. You can hike up the stairs or upway. It's worth the effort.

One of the best places for a beautiful sunset view ☺️😍

Amazing view point. Try to be hear in the Early mornings to catch best view of Heidelberg with fog.

Great spot to view the Castle and Heidelberg!

Nice view to Heidelberg and worth a visit

At walking distance from the city centre the garden terrace offers a great view over the castle 🏰, the Rhein river and the famous philosopher weg Try to time your visit for sunset 🌇 and bring your picnic for a great evening
