Tips

When you arrive at the Mount of Olives, you are greeted by a magnificent view. Sometimes you can see the entire foggy Rhine Valley, sometimes you can see as far as Cologne and see phenomenal sunsets. Mountain bikers know the way up, hikers are never alone. When you reach your destination, a small but fine restaurant offers more than just bratwurst and soft ice cream. If you choose the direct ascent in a straight line, you can enhance your stay with a wheat beer, or if you want to enjoy the sunset, a glass of red wine. There is also a relaxed, well-developed path that winds its way up to the summit.

The summit can only be reached via the restaurant terrace. A staircase leads to this to the left of the restaurant entrance.

The well-developed path makes it worth the trip even at night!

The view from the Great Oelberg is fantastic. You have a 360 degree view.
