The Emsdettener Venn is an impressive moor and wetland area west of Emsdetten and is one of the last remaining raised bogs in Münsterland. On an area of around 340 hectares, moorland, wet meadows, heathland, reed belts, and small wooded areas alternate, giving the area its special character. Today, the nature reserve is primarily a valuable refuge for rare plants and animals, including various meadow birds and moorland species. At the same time, the Venn invites you to enjoy peaceful walks and nature observations – the open, vast landscape with its typical moorland moods is particularly beautiful.

In the flat, damp meadows, storks find plenty of food such as frogs, insects, and mice. You can often observe several pairs searching for food at the same time, as they majestically stalk through the tall grass. 🪶🐸

🚲🧺✨ The Storchenwiese between Emsdettener Venn and St. Arnold is a true paradise for nature observers and proof of successful renaturation in the Münsterland. Located on the border between Emsdetten and Neuenkirchen, this extensive wet meadow offers the ideal habitat for the white stork, which has been a regular visitor here for several years.

Around the railway technology, there are benches and information boards that invite you to take a break. Here you can catch your breath in peace while learning more about the history of the "Rheinische Eisenbahn" and the importance of the train station for the region. 🚲🥪

🚲🛤️✨ The old railway technology at the former St. Arnold train station is a fascinating open-air museum for everyone who wants to feel the heartbeat of railway history on the Münsterland cycle path. Where steam and diesel locomotives once puffed along the route between Rheine and Coesfeld, today it is a reminder of the railway era.

Sellener Weg is very easy to drive on, although there are a few cars 🚗 every now and then, but that's still quite manageable.
