The parking lot is quite small. It can get crowded during the lady's slipper blooms. It's recommended to visit the castle hill during the week or early in the morning.

Magnificent views of the plains beyond Deensen to Stadtoldendorf, Holenberg, Vogler, Holzberg, Kellberg, and Homburg. With the Solling mountain range behind you, it's very close to the Deensen barbecue area with its pond. It's a great place to linger.
