Hiking

Nice starting point for hikes and at the visitor center there is some information about the city of Kassel.

The visitor center of the World Heritage site Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe is located behind the Hercules. Here you can find all information about the park and its sights.

Hiking

While the visitor center isn't too worthwhile, there is at least some interesting historical data about Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe. Otherwise, the gray concrete block is artistically quite beautiful (with a view of Hercules), but inside there is only a souvenir shop. You won't find smaller dishes to hand here. Only a very manageable selection of ice cream and a few drinks are available here. Even those who want to buy tickets will receive very little information about the available offers. It all seems pretty unmanageable. Nevertheless, it is simply part of the Hercules visit.
