The adventurous premium hiking trail “Galgenvenn” leads hikers through impressive nature. Sometimes on the German side, sometimes on the Dutch side. Anyone who starts in a southerly direction from the Galgenvenn guesthouse first comes through the enchanted border forest. The idyllic Sonsbeck-Venn and the beautiful Langen-Venn The fens together form the Heidemoore nature reserve.
We continue through a tall forest to the picturesque gravel pit, which lies in the middle of a renatured landscape. Sky-blue lakes invite you to linger. Towards the north, hikers follow narrow paths on the slopes of the Meuse to the “Schlucht” nature reserve with a beautiful view of the valley. From there you can reach the Dutch nature reserve Holtmühle and the open heath landscape “Hühnerkamp”. The hikers reach the starting point through an oak avenue and past sequoia trees, streams and the flax hollows.

This open space is simply beautiful at any time - sometimes the morning mist wafts, then it's particularly great here.
