Tips

The Backumer Tal in Herten is a very beautiful green oasis. If you just want to take a walk after work or, like us, on a much too hot holiday, this is the place for you. Old trees. Shady places to rest. A barefoot path, two playgrounds for the "Zerge" and much more. If you fancy a round of mini golf, you can do that here. And right next door is the leisure pool, the Copa Ca Backum. By the way, there's a small Italian ice cream parlor in the entrance area. We wish you a few nice hours in the countryside!
