Flora and fauna
The Sengelsberg highlands are used for agriculture and there is a small wood on its southern flank. Juniper heather and orchid- rich grasslands also thrive there . A small herd of gray horned heather sheep was settled, which is supposed to protect the juniper heaths and the grasslands from overgrowth and thus preserve them through intensive grazing.
A 1.61 hectare sub-area on the southern flank of the Sengelsberg is designated as a biotope important for rare amphibian species as a natural monument Sengelsberg . There is one of the last North Hessian occurrences of the natterjack toad , and to safeguard their habitat there are biotope design measures carried out by local nature lovers.
Hiking and viewing opportunities
The Sengelsberg can be reached by hikers, for example, on the Habichtswaldsteig leading over its crest , which crosses the Herkulesweg at the Steinbachskopf ( 332.6 m ) to the northwest . From its high altitude there is a wide view of the Eder valley and Waldeck Castle , but also of the nearby Böhne.
