    Excavations confirmed the existence of the complex - information boards: Three mountains used to be the Dreibergen castle hill. "Three mountains" stand out in the town of the same name on the northern shore of the sea. Many people have certainly puzzled over the hills. They are - as excavations by archaeologist Dr. Dieter Zoller prove - more than just simple elevations. In the middle of the twelfth century, a castle complex belonging to the Counts of Elmendorf stood here. Information boards present the history.

      A beautiful path leads there. A nice place to stay.

        Probably the highest "mountains" in the area. Pretty fun on a gravel or mountain bike, although there isn't much of a trail. But it is important to pay attention to pedestrians!!
