Highlight • Natural

Pure moorland - in spring and summer when it blooms, a dream 😍 but also in winter and autumn already an eye-catcher :)

I finally had time while driving through and was able to take a look at the small nature reserve! It is an interesting little natural area.

It is worth a visit in any season.

Of course, it didn't work out as planned. We actually wanted to take the small fenced-in circular paths, but one of the paths was completely flooded, so we had to go cross-country around the pond.

Finally being outside again 😊.

The reason I wasn't at the door for so long was because I sustained an injury (torn meniscus in my knee 😪).

June 11, 2022,Hünxe: Walchholderheide und gaaanz viel Wald

I put it like that, if you live nearby, it's a nice walk in the forest, but nothing more. The juniper heath is relatively small and other heath landscapes offer more. For us, the journey from Düsseldorf was not really profitable.

A visit to the Drevenacker juniper heath is always something special. Sitting under the ancient oak tree and sniffing this atmosphere is pure relaxation
