In the midst of the local recreation area Diersfordter Wald lies the heath pond "Schwarzes Wasser" - a hidden gem and the oldest nature reserve in Wesel. It is scenically situated in a hollow surrounded by wooded dunes. Its name comes from the dark color of the water, which is caused by the humic substances in the moor vegetation. www.
