It is assumed that the three castles on Lake Kastorf represented the political and cultural center of the Tollenser people.

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.

Great circular route around the lake that can be ridden easily, without any problems and without any further difficulty. A great tour through a beautiful (lake) landscape, a very varied circuit variant.

There are only a few places where there is “open” access to the shore. The view of the lake from the shore is awesome. Very nice place. Just stop briefly and capture the beautiful perspectives of the lake.
