    There are various trails on Spatzenberg, mostly running north-south. The paved paths lead through the beautiful forest. If visibility is good, the eastern dirt road is recommended. The compromise of limited comfort (condition, gradient) is rewarded with a magnificent view!

      You can enjoy cycling around Spatzenberg on well-maintained, car-free paths. However, there's no view from the top because the summit area is densely forested.

        Located on the Spatzenberg (also called Löhner Berg), below the memorial cross, directly on the cycling and hiking path, is a marl pit, also known as the Grumkuhle (Grum Pit) to the long-established Falscheiders. The marl (Grum) mined here until the mid-20th century served as reinforcement material for agricultural paths, farms, and squares. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, this was a festival site. Today, it is a rest area for cyclists and hikers familiar with the area. You can take a relatively comfortable break on the large, semicircular stone blocks or on a bench nearby. An information board provides interesting facts about the Spatzenberg, its history, and its natural environment. The Spatzenberg, which was predominantly used for agriculture until the mid-20th century, is now half-forested again and a popular local recreation area.

          The memorial cross on the highest point, the 96-meter-high hill of the Spatzenberg, was erected in 1954 by the "Association of Returnees" and is intended to commemorate the prisoners of war of the Second World War.

          The Spatzenberg, today also known as "Löhner Berg", is only partially wooded. Large parts of the Spatzenberg were used as arable land until the middle of the 20th century. The first reforestation projects only began in 1969. Today the Spatzenberg is an important local recreation area.
