Access
Burg Leuchtenberg ruins are located in the town of Leuchtenberg, just a few meters from the A6 motorway, southeast of Weiden. To get there, take the Leuchtenberg exit and then follow the B22 towards Weiden. The castle ruins are about one kilometer off the main road, on a hill to the left of the road.
Visitors are strongly advised to wear sturdy footwear, as there are steps and uneven ground. Please also be careful not to touch the gates, as they are rusty.
