Highlight • Cycleway

The cycle paths between Brüggen and the border are just wonderful and no matter where you ride.

Always nice to take a break here. The view of the lake and the opposite shore is very beautiful at any time of the year.

Lake Venekoten

Highlight • Lake

The bike path between Venekotensee and Schwalm is perhaps the more attractive one, but on the other hand it is no less beautiful.

Heathland in Schwalmenbruch

Highlight • Natural

For me, the Schwalmenbruch is one of the most beautiful highlights in the Viersen district, perhaps comparable to the Krickenbecker lakes.
A visit is worthwhile at any time of the year, and I especially love the evening mood in August when the heather is in bloom.


At the moment there is no observation tower there, only time can tell whether this is being renewed.

Very little-used alternative to get to the Elmpter Schwalmbruch or to leave it.
