Short family-friendly circular hike to the Löwenburg in Lauenberg!
According to legend, Löwenburg Castle was built by the Counts of Dassel as a hunting lodge. Around 1250, it is mentioned in a change of ownership to the Guelphs and served as the administrative seat of the Lauenburg office of the Dukes of Brunswick-Lüneburg from 1399 to 1530.

Directions & Parking facilities

Getting there
The Stadtwald / Hube parking lot is located at the upper part of the Hubeweg north of Einbeck.

By car: 
From Einbeck town center: Drive past the Ostertor onto the Hubeweg, then up over the hill. The Hubeweg begins at the level crossing at Ostertor. The path turns left after a left-hand bend and continues as Lindenallee up to the Hube. The signposted Stadtwald / Hube hiking parking lot is then located. 

By train:
From the train station or city center: You can first walk in the direction of Ostertor / Altstadt, then change to the Hubeweg and follow this uphill to the Stadtwald / Hube parking lot. (The exact hiking routes and footpaths are steep in places and lead through wooded areas.)
The parking lot is a signposted hiking parking lot, so there are signposts as soon as you are on the Hubeweg.
