A hillside viewing point overlooking the valley and Schloss (Neuschwanstein/nearby Bavarian castles). Shoot sweeping alpine panoramas with the castle perched against forested slopes and dramatic sky. Best at golden hour or blue hour for warm side-light and long shadows; sunrise gives soft light and fewer people. Access: short walk from Pöllat Quelle parking (seasonal parking fees possible); well-marked trail but bring hiking shoes in wet conditions. No entry fee; expect tourist crowds in summer—
