Fine gentle ascent until you get to the final stretch. Tried cycling up to the tower but the last few metres were just too steep. Great view from the top of the tower where you can look out over the trees, though. And it is still nice to be at the highest point of a certain area (this time the Eifel).... read more

Fine gentle ascent until you get to the final stretch. Tried cycling up to the tower but the last few metres were just too steep.

Fijne rustige beklimming totdat je bij het laatste stuk aankomt. Geprobeer om fietsend tot aan de toren te komen maar de laatste meters waren toch net te steil. Wel een prachtig uitzicht van bovenuit de toren waar je over de bomen uit kan kijken. En het blijft toch leuk om op het hoogste punt van een bepaald gebied (ditmaal de Eifel) te staan.
