The crest and the other slopes of the Bückeberg are covered with mixed forest. From the Weser village of Latferde further south a local road runs over the Bückeberg to Hagenohsen. From 1933 to 1937 the Reich Harvest Thanksgiving Festival held by the Nazis took place on a large, artificially-levelled field on the western side of the Bückeberg. The municipality of Emmerthal has put forward a land use plan for the terrain of the Reich harvest festival.
