The Uedem High Forest is worth a visit, especially on warm days, as you can always hike in the shade. I was particularly taken with the natural forest cell. A narrow path where you repeatedly had to climb over fallen trees – wildly romantic.

If you want to master the opposite ascent after the downhill, no matter which side, be sure to take the momentum with you and choose the middle ring at the front and a large ring at the back. Select a high support level for the eBike. You should also be fit - at your own risk.

Good starting point for hikes in the Uedem high forest and around Mörmter. In addition, a bridle path for "boundless riding" in the Euregio Rhein-Waal leads past here.

Especially now in autumn, the forest region invites you to go on wonderful hikes. The forest paths are well maintained, but sturdy shoes are recommended. Here and there the forest machines left minor damage to the fields. There are benches along the way.
