Please check local regulations for: NSG Beerenbruch
The Beerenbruch nature reserve lies on the border between the two cities of Dortmund and Castrop-Rauxel. It was created around 1950 by subsidence. Here the Brunosee was created as a mountain subsidence water. Numerous water birds such as the little grebe, teal and shoveler live and breed at this lake. The lake is overgrown with reeds at its edges. These provide habitat for reed warblers and reed bunting. The Brunosee is bordered by old forest stands, some of which are 110 to 190 years old.

The hidden lake next to the Leveringhausen bird pond (bit.ly/2oPovUy) invites you to take a long break by the water.

When too many people come at the same time on nice weekends or holidays, things get tight. There is not much space for it, there are only a few stones to sit on and there are no benches. The viewing platform was destroyed and is useless anyway, because you really only look in front of branches.

Space for a break, not a sole destination because the lake itself does not really have much to offer and cannot be circumnavigated, but is a kind of dead end street Lake Bruno as a nice side trip.

It's a small lake, but unfortunately only a few opportunities to take a break.
The small forests around the lake are teeming with cyclists and walkers. Unfortunately it is very full. So less of a place for a leisurely break.

Small lake, we used to say "duck pond" :-)
Located in the middle of the forest, on easy-to-use bike paths.
Well suited for a short break!

This little detour is definitely worth it. It is best to take binoculars with you, as there are so many water birds to be seen.
