Monte Troodelöh, the highest point within the municipal area of the city of Cologne

Overview

It lies on rising ground in the middle of Königsforst at a height of 118 meters above sea level. Above the Wolfsweg there is a prominence that is 130 metres higher, but it lies outside of the boundaries of Cologne and is officially a part of Bergisch Gladbach.

As recently as 1999, Monte Troodelöh was largely unknown. Today it is a destination on many suggested hiking routes and is considered a tourist attraction, in spite of the fact that the spot offers neither an attractive view nor any rest stops or amenities.[1][2]
