A magnet for cyclists and day-trippers, just don't forget the old hiking trails, otherwise you'll lose the hikers.

Albeit just over 200 meters high. This panoramic mountain simply deserves a summit cross!

It's always nice to be rewarded with a summit cross when you reach the top. And then of course enjoy the beautiful view.

Recently there has been this cross here that the Nüssenberg truly deserves. The small plaque with the name and the altitude is very nice. Standing here at the front is a special experience!
