From here you have a fantastic view of the Bode Valley. The name of the hill is reminiscent of the head forester La Viers, who was the highest-ranking forestry official in the Prussian province of Saxony for the Harz forest areas in the 19th century. La Viers, possibly of Huguenot descent, often hunted in this area. In view of the onset of Harz tourism, he suggested the creation of hiking trails very early on and even before the Harz Club was founded.

Great view of the Rosstrappe and down into the Grand Canyon, stamp office of the HWN, it's worth it!
