In any case, the view of the heath and the small lake is great! An "overnight cabin" typical of DK is also incorporated into the lookout tower. Strangely enough, this highlight was set a few kilometers away. Since, like me back then, nobody should be disappointed if the highlight is not found, I was able to get Komoot to make a change.
