The rock garden "Im Lehlinger" is located directly at the "Nitteler Fels", a rock formation which is already visible from far away. It is the landmark of Nittel, directly at the hiking trail "Moselsteig" and can be reached by car (even if the road is actually only permitted for agricultural traffic). The entrance is in Nittel opposite the end of the street "Im Blümchen" at the state road L135, which leads towards Onsdorf. The coordinates are: 49.663028, 6.438790 / 49°39'46.9"N 6°26'19.6"E.

But also by foot the garden is pleasant to reach. The path leads for 1.2 km through the vineyards with a view on the rock wall and the Moselle Valley.
