An amazing view of all the city of Lviv. You can see the old city and how it migrate into the new city. Also, great spot for sunset or sunrise. The only disadvantage is that is very crowed because it is a very touristic place but I highly recommend it. Closing, you need to be in some kind of good fitness shape because it is on a mountain and it has a lot of stairs up!

I left my hotel at 4am and took a leisurely walk to High Castle and wound around the trail leading to the summit. It was so peaceful and calm as I watched the sun break through the horizon and lighten the valley. I will do this again on my next visit...it was soul restoring.

Hi Castle Hill is guarantees the best view of the city, However, because of the war, the access to the Castle itself is denied, i guess for security reasons.This being the said, you can still get a few of the city at the bottom of Castle Hill The Castle Hill Garden and the is very clean, spacious ,and beautiful and even though there are trees growing at the edge of the mountain that may obscure partial view there are some areas where you can get beautiful photos of Lviv City. Be sure to visit both day and night which is what I did. It is very safe the night I went I went alone and in the area was well except the garden itself was a little bit dark but it was safe. The trek up the hill was quite a nice exercise. I totally enjoyed.

The path up to the top is well maintained and kept free of leaves. The entire area, like the rest of the city is totally free of litter. The view from the top is well worth the climb, which is not too strenuous ( we are all over 70). Refreshments are available from three cafes in the car park at the bottom of the footpath

Historic High Castle offers a chance to look out over and appreciate the old city and the new modern development. There is a short uphill hike that requires several steps but the view from the top is well worth the effort.

It is a hill (with no castle) from which you can see all city. If you are up for a walk and the weather is good, it can be a nice breeze of fresh air with a bit climbing :)

Plan your visit ahead. Comfortable shoes are very important (believe it or not, we walked by some women in stilettos!). There are two options to go all the way up. One is a stiff climb up many stairs. Second is of course longer but takes you up a walking trail. There are few steps to climb in the end no matter what.
The view is beautiful. Earlier in the day gives you a better chance to avoid crowds.

This is a little way out of town - and for anyone with walking difficulties would be hard. However we walked there from the centre - views were lovely - see for miles, worth the trip.

We decided to visit it due to panoramic view. But the view wasn’t that wow that to climb long way there.

Settle in for the trek up to the high castle itself, time it near sunset and enjoy watching the city phase into the nightlife. Breathtaking views well worth the stroll!!!!
