Look-out Elfbuchen

Once bulit to have a sight of Kassel and the Hercules monument it is now decrepit and closed since the trees all around surmounting the viewing platform. The tower rises at 535hm in neighbourhood of the homonymous forest hotel. Although you will not be able to escalade the tower it is still a mystical place reminding of the famous Grimms' fairy tales. You can combine the visit with a detour to the imposing Hercules monument or with a great hike through the Habichtswald.
