    Tips

    August 29, 2017

    Northernmost and highest mountain of the Eggegebirge 464 m above sea level. NHN. An observation deck from which one can throw wide views into the country. Here was a former NATO Radar u. Rakenabwehrstation (HAWK and Patriot) of the Dutch. When NATO troops left on 1 July 1994, wide asphalt roads, ammunition bunkers, soldiers' quarters and a radio tower were left behind. The federal government and the state of North Rhine-Westphalia agreed to renaturate the site. The Forstamt Paderborn demolished the military installations in 2002 and 2003. Since August 2003, access to the summit for hikers is no longer limited to the Eggeweg.
