Tips
Straight farm road. Even if you drive in a small depression, the "summit cross" of the Pope Hill spends over the slightly higher fields.

The agricultural fields that can now be seen here were extremely heavily populated in August 2005: several hundred thousand - mostly young - people had gathered here for the vigil and the final service at the XX. World Youth Day, which took place in and around Cologne. The name “Pope’s Hill” still reminds us of this today.
