It is very nice place with great ambience, view from the top is just awesome. You can almost see entire city and it's beauty. It's good for a light hiking who wants to warm a bit. You can even drive your car there to top. Be aware that your dog has to be tied up good. It has benches to sit around. There is sun bath place I have noticed and it was amazing. There is some ancient Piller on the top. And yes I can't forget rotating cafe there which is open only on Sunday if one wants to visit. I went there first time with my date and believe me I didn't regret...

Wunderschöner Aussichtspunkt über Aachen. Es gibt viele Möglichkeiten per Fuß dahin zu kommen. Man kann den Punkt auch über eine Straße erreichen. Für Rollstuhlfahrer: rund um den Obelisk ist fester Grund, somit gut zu erreichen. Auf der Ebene kann man schön spazieren. Gleichzeitig hat man die Möglichkeit, den alten Wasserturm von Aachen zu besuchen, inklusive Restaurant. Bitte unbedingt die Öffnungszeiten, bzw. entsprechende Webseite beachten.

A very good place to take a look at Aachen from a top with a stone monument on top of the Hill. The place is surrounded by a green forest and another monuments like pillars that You pass them on your way Up.

Auf dem 264 Meter hohen Lousberg gelegen ein prima Aussichtspunkt auf Aachen und den Kaiserdom. Oben steht ein Turm mit einem Drehrestaurant, dass allerdings nur Sonntags geöffnet hat. Der Obelisk erinnert daran, dass hier der erste Triangulationspunkt war, von dem aus der napoleonische Geograf Jean Joseph Tranchot mit der topografischen Aufnahme der Rheinlande im Maßstab 1:20.000 im 19. Jahrhundert begann. Bei der Wanderung hinauf, der Berg ist als Landschaftspark angelegt, kommt man an den Säulen des abgebrannten früheren Gesellschaftshauses Belvedere vorbei.
