    This lookout hill was built by people. The top is at a height of no less than 98 meters, which is quite a lot for Dutch standards. Is it not high enough for you yet? Then climb to the top of the viewing tower, which is also 30 meters high. On a clear day, you can even see Germany from here!

      The Emmapiramide is a man-made hill in the municipality of Rozendaal, on the border with Rheden, and is located along the Kluizenaarsweg. The top of the hill reaches 98 meters in height, while the wooden watchtower has a height of 30 meters. Visitors are welcome to freely explore the Emma Pyramid. On clear days, the view offers the possibility to see even beyond the border with Germany.

        Originally an artificial hill for monitoring fires. Now here is a wooden lookout tower.

            Unfortunately the tower was closed.

              After the corona measures have been lifted, the tower can also be climbed again.

                    Unfortunately, it's closed. So you can't go up there.

                      The mentioned height of 30 meters seems incorrect to me.
                      I count 5 stairs with 12 steps each.
                      This means that with a step height of 20 cm the tower is 60 x 0.2 m = 12 m high and that the top is at 98 + 12 = 110 m.
                      Quite nicely high!!
