Once again to our nice Dutch neighbors through the Maasduinen ... Very entertaining and varied 👍. Based on a recommendation from Axel from Krefeld 😉

Today we were with a very nice group in the border area 🇩🇪🇳🇱. It went along the Niers Canal and through the nature reserve De Hamert 🍄 🌳. We also discovered the wild horses 🐴 after a bit of searching. Thanks to Verena for planning the great tour.

On my last day off I completed a tour of the German-Dutch border from Walbeck and added it to my collection:
komoot.de/collection/1665448/-wandern-im-bordernahen-holland

Great heath landscapes, Maasduinen and wild horses in perfect hiking weather. It's a shame that work calls again tomorrow.

Have a nice week

Today I headed toward the Dutch border again. With my canine companion by my side, I took a lovely walk through the Maasduinen.

The start and finish of the hike was the "Am Freibad" car park in Walbeck. From there we hiked through a forest and lake landscape across the Dutch border into the Maasdünen area. We walked on sandy paths through a fascinating heath landscape.

A wonderful hike through the dunes and lakes near Arcen, with wonderful summer weather and blooming heather. With a final stop at the Walbeck steakhouse - highly recommended!

Yesterday's "Maasduinen" tour was full of wonderful impressions and we all loved it.

The weather was great, everyone was in a relaxed and good mood and the stop offered us a fantastic selection of "senior meals"!

Thank you Ekki, especially for postponing the originally planned day and thus allowing me to take part!
