    From here you have a breathtaking view of the mountains around you and the Ruhr area. It is advisable to take a pair of binoculars with you.

      I recommend doing the tour in 2025. Starting in 2026, a large wind farm with 35 wind turbines will be built in the Balver Forest, which will significantly change the landscape.
