The Preußischer Velmerstot is the highest elevation in the Eggegebirge at 468 m above sea level; the neighboring Lippischer Velmerstot is its smaller brother at 441 m.
The Velmerstot therefore has two peaks. Both peaks were border areas in the past; this explains the names Preußischer Velmerstot and Lippischer Velmerstot.

Here you have a great view, the huge stones look like diced. Be sure to look, if you are already up here! Oh yes, the last meters are a bit difficult with the MTB.

Attraction for hikers, mountain bikers and other bikers. You can actually ride your bike up to the rock formation - exercise caution 😉.
