Author's tip
Curiosity - On the summer solstice on the 21st of June, when the rising sun appears over the horizon of the Seiser Alm the line of its rays creates a direct link between the two castles.

General description

The ruins of Salegg are not far from the Hauenstein ruins, at the foot of the might rock face of the Santner, hidden deep in the forest. The castle dates back to the 12th century and were passed in the hands of the Wolkenstein dynasty. 
Today all hat remains of its former glory are the castle walls, and yet the site continues to emanate a very special, mysterious energy.
According to an old legend, a secret passageway runs between the two castles Hauenstein and Salegg.
