Yes, it's useful—or, if you prefer that word, practical—to know a hiking parking lot as a starting point for your tour, or to find it here in the komoot system when planning. However, I personally imagine something more beautiful as a true "highlight" that would actually deserve the name, especially since the forest chapel located here, which is worth seeing, is listed as a standalone highlight in the komoot system.

This path is significantly narrower than some of the straight forest highways that can also be found in parts of the Rheinbach Forest. It's especially nice to walk between spring and fall, when the leaves are on the trees...

From and around the Tomburg: a magnificent view of a diverse settlement, culture, and landscape area, from the Ville and Börden landscape in the west, across the 'Middle Rhine Gate', where the Rhine Valley widens, to the Siebengebirge on the horizon, and further into the Wachtberg region with Landskron Castle in the south. 😎👌

Beautiful path along the stream. Be careful when wet. Can be slippery.

As the attentive user joetobn has already noticed, the location of the bridge is unfortunately not displayed correctly on the map. I have added a map section showing the correct location as an additional photo. This is too far from the incorrect marker. I have already asked Komoot to correct the location.
