シークの絶景の山頂・トップ7

in winter there is a beautiful view from the summit; in summer you only see a lot of green.

Not a racing bike highlight from my point of view either. Here you can go up by MTB or gravel bike. With the MTB you can then also ride the different descents, in which jumps were also built in the forest. Otherwise you push the racing bike up and down again.

At 63.3 m, the Mellenberg in the Volksdorf district of Hamburg is the highest natural elevation in the Wandsbek district and in the entire north of Hamburg. It has a round shape that rises about twelve meters above the surrounding terrain and is a Weichselian glacial end moraine that arose in the fork between the Volksdorfer and Meiendorfer glacier tongues. It was designated as a geotope by the Geological State Office in Hamburg. The mountain is located at the eastern end of the Volksdorfer Forest and is tree-covered. It can be reached via a number of hiking trails. In the 20th century, a lookout tower was built on the mountain, which no longer exists. In addition, in 1925 a terracotta memorial was erected on the Mellenberg, which named the 48 people's villages who fell in the First World War; however, it was destroyed in 1945. Three streets are named after the mountain: 1903 the Mellenbergweg, 1950 the Mellenbergstieg and 1986 the Mellenbergkamp, all of which are in its immediate vicinity. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellenberg_(mountain)

The MTB constructions, jumps and other challenges are exciting and of course can only be mastered with the right equipment. That means: not with the gravel bike. But you should take a look! It's hardly used at the moment... Addendum 05/12/2022: It's busier again! So it's worth it!

'Above' on the Bocksberg is an open space with seating.

Someone has built a fireplace directly on the stone, but the stone can still be recognized.

You can either take a mountain bike up one of the trails or you can chain the bike and walk up the stairs. There are also great vantage points on the slope up to the mountain.

You would not believe that the Mellenberg is so high because it is in the middle of the district. It is not always easy to get up, as many branches are laid across. Attention!
