The place lies today immediately next to the Wupper Reservoir. Its neighbouring villages are Dürhagen, Hammerstein and Voßhagen. The place may be reached today on the A 7 path, from which a small side path branches off (signed). There is a viewing point protected by railings with a panoramic view of the reservoir. Before the construction of the dam there were also views of the village of Dörpe.
