The Castle Geyser is located in the Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park. Its cone is large and it is estimated to be more than 1000 years old . During that period it has grown due to the deposition of geyserite sinter brought up by each eruption.

Like most geysers, Castle has a "circle of destruction" around it where most plant life has been killed by the heat, acidity and sulfurous compounds. The tree in the foreground is a typical example.
