      I was actually very surprised that you didn't have to pay anything at such a tourist attraction. Great!

      A decently large parking lot right next to the stairs!

        The Norddeutschland Halde (North Germany Heap), approximately 102 meters high, was operated between 1952 and 2001 with approximately 80 million tons of overburden.

        Today, it is freely accessible and is actively used for walking, kite flying, cycling, walking, and other sports and leisure activities.

        From the free, spacious parking lot, the 359-step Stairway to Heaven provides the shortest route to the summit of the Norddeutschland Halde (North Germany Heap).
