    Hiking

    A place steeped in history, but hiking is difficult here from May onwards, the grass stands tall, who should look after it.
    From the top of the castle hill you have a great view.

    Hiking

    Unfortunately, this place is not given the same attention as comparable ring sanctuaries (Pömmelte, Goseck). The hike there should be made in a season when there is little vegetation. There is no real path.

    The Schalkenburg near Quenstedt in the district of Mansfeld-Südharz in Saxony-Anhalt is a multi-period archaeological site with an almost completely archaeologically examined inner surface. In this area was a Neolithic circular ditch plant, a settlement of the Bernburg culture, as well as a late Bronze Age to older Iron Age and a late Hallstatt period hill settlement. Buried castle excavated.
