The area of the Ems-Quelle is here very well developed by the Ems-Info-Center and is also very well maintained. You can only go on the beschlderten paths and ride a bike - and not wild as you want. This protects the resource and is nice to look at. At the sources - but there are benches to relax and let nature take their breath away. In addition, a map is attached and attached to the flyers for the environment (see photos).

This is where the Ems has its source in the form of a seepage spring and, after 371 km, it flows into the North Sea as a broad stream.
