    Hiking

    The bathing lake Kapbusch near Brachelen (also Naturseebad Kapbusch) is a large natural outdoor pool with a leisure area maintained by the city of Hückelhoven.

    The lake is a quarry pond created by sand or gravel mining and is located between the Hückelhoven districts of Hilfarth and Brachelen on the L 364. During the summer months (May to around the end of August) there is a snack bar on the site, as well as showers and toilet facilities. The water quality is "very good" according to the EU scale.
