94m high elevation in the forest. No far-reaching view possible, as it is surrounded by trees. There is a small boundary stone on the "summit"

94m high, at the top a boundary stone marks the summit in the dense forest, so the distant view is blocked.

Please do not approach from the north via the trail! Currently a lot of deforestation above and catastrophic underground on the way to the "summit".
