From here you have a view as far as Neumünster. In good, clear weather you can see the heating plant and the water tower.

Little Scandinavia/Erratics Always interesting: erratics. Amateur geologists will be happy. There are also many erratics to be seen around the festival grounds. A nice place for a break, with a shelter.
