🌳✨ Magical tunnel of leaves The Grüne Tunnelpfad path towards Schäferei is a true natural wonder in Nordwalde.

Especially on sunny days, the light dances through the dense foliage, creating a fascinating play of light and shadow – a path that you would want to ride several times.

✉️ 📬 The Old Post Dam along the Max-Clemens Canal is a historically significant section of path that connects the history of logistics in the Münsterland region with the natural environment of today's nature reserve. Before the Max-Clemens Canal was planned as a waterway in the 18th century, the Post Dam was an important land connection for stagecoaches and travelers between Münster and the north. It often ran parallel to the planned sections of the canal.
