Curious what the landscape you are walking through today looks like? Then climb up into this tower and take a look. There was originally a hut on this spot. The hut was a so-called Hessen hut: the Hessen roads were trade routes from Germany to Utrecht, and one of these roads led over the Goudsberg. The hut was built here in the 1950s.

Unique viewing point from the edge of the Veluwe towards the north, looking in the direction of Barneveld. In the evening the many lights are especially beautiful.
