The Hohenstein in the Süntel hills is a striking rock formation and one of the most popular viewpoints in the Weser Uplands. From the approximately 340-meter-high cliff, there is a sweeping view across the Weser Valley and the surrounding hills. The Hohenstein's rocks are made of sandstone and drop steeply southward into the valley. From the natural viewpoints, especially the so-called "pulpit," the course of the Weser River, which meanders through the landscape in wide bends, is clearly visible. The area is part of the Süntel Nature Reserve and provides habitat for numerous animal and plant species.
