Hiking
Attention, it's uphill! The Gotegemberg is called "mountain" and is actually a hill - but do not underestimate it. Its height difference is about 35 meters. Cyclists hate it because there is a section that has a casual 18 percent incline - but you do that with your left hand and you hardly break a sweat ?!
Below the mountain you will find a fish pond and a historic water mill (the Gotegemmolen), which is no longer in operation.
