Leeder-Berg, Hill summit in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Leeder-Berg rises to 202 meters and sits within the Teutoburg Forest with forested slopes and natural clearings. The landscape shifts between dense forest and more open areas, making walks varied and interesting.
The mountain sits near the site of the Battle of Teutoburg Forest from 9 AD, where Germanic tribes defeated Roman legions. This clash shaped European history and gives the region deep historical weight.
The summit is part of the Hermannsweg, a trail system connecting multiple peaks and offering walkers different routes through the region.
The mountain is accessible via a hiking path of about 1.7 kilometers from the parking area east of Autobahn 1. The trail is well marked and suitable for walkers of various fitness levels.
Radio amateurs use the summit for contests like the AGCW VHF event, taking advantage of its elevation for signal transmission. This unexpected hobby has given the peak recognition in certain circles.
