Unfortunately, the gravel pit is overgrown with bushes on all sides. A visit is only possible via the Oststadt factory entrance with permission. For geologists, this is a treasure trove, as the ice ages of the last 100,000 years have been exposed here.

The Wildberg Castle Wall is located in the municipality of Wildberg on the eastern shore of Lake Kastorf. It consists of a smaller main castle and two arched outer castles and was built in the 7th or 8th century. The castle complex has been repeatedly renovated and expanded over time. Together with the castle wall island on Lake Kastorf, these castles presumably form the political and cultural center of the Tollenser people.

The climb up the 55-meter-high Chimborazo is worthwhile. There's a summit cross and a summit book, but unfortunately, no view.

Not just a large stone, but a boulder that was once brought to this place by the glaciers. If you look more closely, you will see a weathered inscription that calls the stone the "King of the Centuries". It is one of the largest boulders in the North German lowlands. The stone has a circumference of around 15 metres and a volume of around 35 m³.
