    Lookout tower with a wonderful view over the region.

      This is a gravel highlight. From the restaurant it is a gravel forest path that winds its way up the forest. If you want to go up here on a racing bike, you may be forced to dismount, so it's more for a mountain bike or gravel bike. Up to the restaurant, but also recommended for racing bikes

              Unfortunately the tower is not open all the time
