The Temple Mount takes its name from the tumulus at the same location. It is nothing more than a small sand hill. Decades ago the heather house stood there. From the hill you could see a small pond surrounded by heather. Today there is a small refuge with a resting place. The pond is no longer there. But still an idyllic place. Also ideal for cyclists.
