Unfortunately overgrown, if I was in the right place! A few meters away, there are 2 viewpoints from which you have a good view.

Dottendorfer Jugendkreuz Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Dottendorf Youth Cross is a historic wayside cross on the edge of the Venusberg, a 176-meter-high plateau in the Bonn city area. It is located above the Bonn district of Dottendorf and its name suggests that it was previously built by the Dottendorf youth community.

There is a viewing point at the cross from which you can enjoy a good view of large parts of Bonn, the Rhine Valley and the Siebengebirge. In particular, the districts of Godesberg, Friesdorf, Dottendorf, Plittersdorf and Gronau can be seen, as well as the Rheinaue leisure park and the Godesburg. In the Siebengebirge on the other side of the Rhine, you have an unobstructed view of the Drachenfels, the Drachenburg and the Steigenberger Hotel on the Petersberg.

Idyllic pond in the forest. Sometimes you can smell the putrefaction gases.
