Double oak front doors open up to the west wall, leading into a large, cavernous room, lit by torches, with ceilings so high they are barely visible. The wide marble staircase opposite the front doors on the east wall leads up to first floor. Double doors on the south wall lead into the Great Hall. On the east wall are two doors, one on either side of the staircase. To the north of the staircase is a door leading down a flight of steps to the first dungeon level.

At the top of the marble staircase from the ground floor is the first floor. The Entrance Hall and Great Hall are several stories tall, so they extend into this floor from below.

The corridor below the prefects' bathroom leads from the nearest staircase and up to the fourth floor. The Hogwarts library is on this floor. There is a shortcut down to the third and second floor by way of a small staircase with a trick step that students often forget to jump. It is also said that there is a narrow, hidden, corridor which leads to a mysterious mirror as well.

The main staircase from the fourth to the fifth floor opens onto a landing where a statue of Boris the Bewildered stands along the wall. The shortest route from the statue to Gryffindor Tower lies in one direction down this corridor while the Prefects Bathroom and Arithmancy classroom lie in the opposite direction.

Not much is known about this floor other than it has been announced to be off limits to students. However, the main corridor is still used to transport between the fifth and seventh floor staircases.

The Seventh floor houses a host of enchanted paintings as well as the entrance to Gryffindor House through the base of Gryffindor Tower. Divination takes place on this floor at the base of the North Tower although you wont find the entrance to this classroom unless you look up. The Charms professor's office is on the seventh floor as well. It is rumored there is a secret room that can magically modify itself located somewhere on this floor as well.

Hogwarts lawn stretches far and wide across the campus. First years are given their first flying lessons here. While venturing, one may encounter the vegetable gardens and greenhouses, or the dangerous Whomping Willow.

The Quidditch stadium is located on school grounds and serves as both a pastime and sport for students. Games are held throughout the year until two teams are left standing. The victor takes home the Quidditch Cup.

The Great Lake is at least half a mile in diameter and is home to freshwater mermaids, the giant squid, and grindylows. It is never advised for students to take a whimsical swim, especially not alone.

Founded by Hengist of Woodcraft, Hogsmeade is the only entirely wizarding village in Britain. The South area of Hogsmeade sees a lot of traffic for its attractions and the occasional shop. The town is less dense the further into the South part one goes, and the site of cottages becomes more frequent as the residential area begins.

The village of Hogsmeade is the only all-wizarding town in all of Britain and there are a fair number of witches and wizards living in it's charming residential area.
