White Venn – Geisheide

Highlight • Natural

The White Fens is a partially peated high moor, which is characterized by extensive, steppe-like pipe grass meadows, birch stump forest and littered moor waters.
It is mostly located in a military training area, so it is not accessible. Cyclists can bypass it and get an impression of this area.

Drive through former military area and a shortcut from Hülsten to Lavesum. You need power on the bike and a strong drive!!! Neat climb(s), but also nice jagged descents up to 60 km/h 😳

Weisses Venn Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

The White Venn, also known as the White Venn-Geisheide, is a fascinating nature reserve in North Rhine-Westphalia that offers a special mix of moorland, dwarf shrub heaths and sandy dunes. This area is particularly valuable due to its diverse flora and fauna, including rare plant species and endangered animal species.

The area extends over several hectares and is surrounded by a network of hiking and cycling trails that allow you to explore the landscape without directly entering the sensitive ecosystem. Due to its location on a former military training area, access to the core area is strictly regulated to protect the natural environment.

A highlight of the White Venn are the reed grass meadows and birch forests that surround the moor. This combination of different habitats makes the White Venn an important refuge for many species of birds and other wildlife.
