 Immediately east of the Schleptruper Egge runs the A 1 motorway, the so-calle Hanseatic Line ("Hansalinie").On the top of the Schleptruper Egge is the mast of the NDR Osnabrück-Engter Transmitter.The long distance path of Hünenweg, managed by the Weser-Ems Wiehen Hills Society ("Wiehengebirgsverband Weser-Ems"), which runs from Osnabrück to Papenburg, also leads over the Schleptruper Egge.
