From this brick platform, you have a wonderful view over Watzenborn-Steinberg to Gießen and, if visibility is good, even further towards Marburg. If you walk a bit to the west, there is also a great view of the Schiffenberg.
The adjacent hedges and bushes are a great retreat for all kinds of birds and small animals.
