Hiking
This stone cross was moved from the old Gangelt cemetery between 1950 and 1960 by Heinrich Diepers and Heinrich Deussen to replace an old, dilapidated cross.
The trail leads down to Nierstraß, in whose valley the Rodebach stream flows towards Gillrath and then north to Gangelt, where it forms the border between Germany and the Netherlands.
