The Ebersberg lies on the southern slopes of the Deister ridge in Germany.
The hill is located southwest of the city of Hanover. On its slopes is the town of Springe.
There are numerous footpaths in the Deister which offer several options for climbing the Ebersberg. The ascent from Springe itself is steep.
