Schloss Neuschwanstein is a 19th century castle which is famous for its amazing views and its cameo in the Disney movies. The castle is a popular destination for tourists, but many people do not realize that there are many beautiful hiking routes near to the castle and that it is situated in such a picturesque area. The project aimed to make members of the public and tourists aware of these opportunities by creating a map that showed many different hiking routes around Schloss Neuschwanstein. The current map given to tourists upon their arrival was very basic and limited in the hiking routes it shows around the castle, and does not depict the number of calories that could be burnt, therefore it seemed a perfect place to base this project.
The overall aim of the project was to create a map where users can obtain a vivid perspective of how many calories are burnt by taking a particular hiking trail as well as showing users some of the best hiking routes in the area.
