Brachter Wald Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

The paths in the former ammunition depot of the British Armed Forces are now in very good condition for all types of bicycles. The surrounding nature is characterized by forest and heathland. A visit is always worthwhile.

Bench with a View of Venekotensee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Many use the route between Schwalm and Venekotensee, but this side of the lake also has its charms and is very beautiful.
Only a short section behind the neighboring houses blocks the view of the lake.
