The Willingen Hochheideturm tower on the Ettelsberg was opened in autumn 2002 and has been a recognizable landmark of the village ever since. The 62-metre-high tower with its viewing platform at 875 meters above sea level is the highest vantage point in north-west Germany.

After 241 steps or comfortably and handicapped accessible with the 8-person elevator, you can let your eyes wander on the glazed viewing platform and enjoy unique views over the mountains of the Hochsauerland, the Waldecker Land and far beyond in good weather. This indescribable view will stay with you for a long time. A special experience for children is the landscape playground at the foot of the tower, which has been extended again and again in recent years.

Tip: Capture your individual memories at 875 m above sea level - at the photo point on the viewing platform!
