The "Mittleres Bruch" observation point is located directly on one of the most beautiful sections of the "Landtour Bückeburg" (Bückeburg Country Tour), as well as other popular cycling routes. From here, you have an uninterrupted view of the fascinating flora and fauna of the wet meadows and floodplains of the Bückeburg lowlands. With a little patience and luck, you can observe various, even rare, bird species "at work." A detailed information panel on "Bird Species" provides even non-experts with the necessary specialist knowledge. Tip: Bring binoculars and/or a camera with a suitably large telephoto lens! It's worth it. This will make your bike ride or hike a truly special experience.🍀🌟

40 years of the Brandshof refuge: 1996 was almost the end. In its 40 years, the Brandshof refuge in Wendthagen has experienced numerous storms and celebrations - and was almost demolished in 1996. At that time, the nearby quarry was to be expanded - but the people of Wendthagen were able to save their hut.
