The Regenstein fortress is a unique experience for young and old. Its location on the rocks allows visitors a fantastic all-round view. In the north, the Heers can be seen with its pine forest and in the south are the Harz foothills and the city of Blankenburg. The fortress itself is largely worked in the sandstone, which distinguishes it from many other castles. A multitude of caves are perfect for young and old explorers. One can combine the visit of the fortress with the Regensteinmühle and the sand caves in the Heers to a wonderful short hike.

If you were on the Regenstein, take some time to look behind the castle. There are sandstone woods and a beautiful sandy area! You feel like you are on a beach, only without water.
