The park has four marked walking trails throughout the grounds, and the visitor center provides maps and information for orientation. A cafe at the center serves local refreshments and light snacks.
Each spring, the chalk grasslands transform into flowering meadows filled with multiple orchid species and rare wildflowers native to the region. This seasonal display draws visitors who time their visits to see this natural show at its peak.
