The ruin is the landmark of Volkmarsen. In clear weather you have a great view over the city and into the wide country. You can drive on a tarred dirt road or on a small trail.

Taking advantage of the break in the rain, we went for a short walk.

Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time for more.
