At the end of the forest you pass the water reservoir of the village Speikern and come here to two reconstructed burial mounds from the Hallstatt period, a closed and an open grave, as they were found not far from here in the sand pit between Speikern and Rollhofen. Magnificent view of the surrounding countryside.

Hiking

This replica of a Celtic burial mound shows clearly what the not very conspicuous burial mounds further down in the valley once looked like. A beautiful view of the Moritzberg and a picnic table invite you to take a rest.

Nordic walking

Interesting insights into the history of the landscape, is also part of the Archeological trail around Speikern, which is highly recommended. From up here also a nice view towards Moritzberg and Nuremberg.
