It sometimes looks like it is floating in the clouds because it sits high above everything else around and the clouds are actually below it. One of the coolest parts of this castle was that it has been rebuilt 3 times at the same location, if I remember correctly. And you can see different parts that are from the older castles.
The views from atop the hill are great because you are at the highest vantage point around...actually, a hill nearby is slightly taller but we were told that at the time of construction the hill the castle sits on was taller. This being said, you have to park halfway up and either pay for a bus to the top or hoof it. We choose the latter and it really is a workout. It is quite steep and I can imagine not wanting to assault this keep.
