    Cycling

    The Potzberg Tower:
    The tower was built in 1952 and inaugurated on July 13, 1952.


    The climb up the 35-meter-high tower is worthwhile; once at the top, you have a wonderful panoramic view.

    The viewing platform is open from March to October from 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

    The Potzberg Hiking Trail:
    This is also highly recommended. The circular trail can be customized to your needs; shortcuts are signposted.
