Carossahöhe
The Carossahöhe is ideal for sensational sunset photos in the fall. Let your legs dangle over the wall and enjoy the view of Landshut: Trausnitz Castle on the left, the towers of St. Martin and St. Jodok on the right, while the city nestles between the mountain and the Isar. Getting there requires some effort, as the Carossahöhe is best reached on foot or by bike.
St. Martin's Church
St. Martin's Church impresses with its 130.1 meter high tower, the highest brick tower in the world and the highest church tower in Bavaria. It took 115 years to complete the church - an impressive testimony to the art of building. It is well worth a visit.

Landshuter Höhenwanderweg
The trail starts at the Hofgarten, near the city center, and leads over the Hofberg.
