    Great panoramic view to the Bergisches Land, about the municipality Wenden, the heights around Olpe and the mountain ranges on the western edge of the district of Olpe on the Siegerland across to the Westerwald.

    A dreamy all-round view although the tower is not very high, it is worth making a short detour from the tour there

    The Heid platform, built in 2017, is 458 meters high. It offers a wonderful view over Olpe, Siegerland, to the Westerwald.
