I would say you may be able to get the wheelchair from the reception/check in spot to the castle, but it would be quite bumpy, and depending on the chair and the person, it could be difficult. Once you get there, you can take in the views, which are amazing, but there is a lot of climbing within the ruins. I hope that helps.
Is it safe for small children to visit? Ages 2, 4, 6. Thanks!

They would need close supervision in the castle, as it has steep drops, behind fences, and steep stairs. It's a consequence of the design and purpose of a castle.
