Hiking

This bench is slightly elevated and there is also a trash can next to it. The view extends over Niederbachem to Berkum and its white sphere (radome of Fraunhofer research). In the back lies the Broichhof and the Siebengebirge.

Garbage cans in nature are a delight for dog owners. The bench next to it has been renovated (01-2025).

I wouldn't exactly call the trash can a "highlight" 🤧, but the bench next to the great view is! 😂
