Beautiful bench with carved fish. This is not the only bench, in this beautiful nature reserve, with carvings. Fantastic place for a break during a walk or bike ride, because with very nice view.

May 7, 2022,Kessel - Niers Wald Runde
A very nice Niederrhein round with a small, green obstacle;)
Off through the tree (difficult), around it through the roses (preferably not), so back again.
Otherwise super nice to walk and a lot of nature. 👍🏻
