    The elevation, with its peculiar name, is actually the highest point in the Cologne city area. Every Cologne resident should probably have climbed it once in their life. This is even possible without an oxygen device. The 118-meter-high "mountain" is located in Königsforst. The Cologne Alpine Club has erected an impressive summit stone up here. There is even a summit book. The name, by the way, is composed of the surnames of the three "discoverers".

    Climbing to the summit and not having a head for heights? No problem. You won't find a summit cross here, but you will find a summit marker. At 118.04 meters, Monte Troodelöh is the highest elevation in the city of Cologne.

    The highest elevation of the city Cologne is the Monte Troodelöh mt 118,04 m over NNH.
    The strange name of this `mountain` comes from the gentlemen: Troost, Dedden and Löhmer. So it came to this strange pun. This memorial stone was sponsored by a financial institution and set up with the help of a forestry administration. Everyone has the opportunity to register in the summit book. Really funny.
