Wildenburg Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

From up here you have a beautiful all-round view. The tower is always open. However, the operators would be very happy about a small donation at the bottom of the tower entrance.

Today I walked the small circular path around the Wildenburg in Kempfeld. It's not very long but an absolute dream, especially at this time of year! Really highly recommended. And if you still haven't had enough, you can go to the wildlife park with a children's playground and refreshments.
