    In the Weseler Heide you have fantastic views of the beautiful heathland with its heather, birch forests, juniper bushes and bee fences. A special gem is the Pastorenteich. Here, the founder of the nature park, Wilhelm Bode, is said to have often sat to enjoy the silence and to prepare his sermons. He was a pastor and now you know why the pond is called that. ;)

      The well-known heathland areas were created as a result of agricultural use in earlier centuries. Typical of the areas that are now protected are the nutrient-poor sandy soils on which only a few plants thrive, such as birch and pine forests, but of course also heather, the common heather (Calluna vulgaris).

      The hiking trails lead past isolated juniper bushes, bee fences and an old sheep barn through the characteristic hills and valleys of the Wesel Heath. With a bit of luck, you might also come across a herd of hardworking Heidschnucken sheep, which have been used to look after the heathland for several centuries.

      There are also a few lakes in the Wesel Heath.

      Heath pastor Wilhelm Bode, the founder of the nature reserve, is said to have often sat at the "Pastorenteiche" to prepare his sermons in God's great outdoors. Hence the name Pastorenteiche.
