A magnificent view is possible from here. East over Hamm to the Siegerland, west is the Oberbergische. Air traffic Cologne/Bonn can also be observed. Southwest the Siebengebirge. It can be enjoyed on a clear day.

Quiet lake. But pretty much everything is forbidden here: swimming, boating and fishing.

180 steps for a great all-round view. On the railing of the viewing platform, the sights and towns are marked with a marker – funny and definitely helpful.

The 180 steps are worth it: the view is great and the navigation aid on the railing is really funny but coherent.
