Great wooden observation tower with a view of the peat quarrying area in earlier years... accessible via the Bohlensteg

Hiking

From the lookout tower you have a beautiful view of the "Rote Moor" and its open space. A panorama map in the tower explains the area.

Hiking

The tower is not too high, so it can be climbed by many people and still offers a good view of the visible area of the moor.
