One of the most beautiful and inviting resting places in the area - right on a quaint little grove, located on the highest point of the hill, stands a cozy worn-out bank. From here you have a wonderful view over the whole area. Especially in the summer you can sit there in the shade of the trees.

Hiking

In the grove there is an old quarry that has now filled with water and is home to amphibians. The official name is "Quarry Grawenhoff".
You can look as far as Duisburg Huckingen.
Popularly, the point is called "gallows hill". However, there is no real evidence of use as a place of jurisdiction.

The bench is really in a very good place, almost a real highlight, especially in summer.
