The Westruper Heide is a great nature reserve and is particularly beautiful when the heather is in bloom. It is very busy at weekends and the Halterner See and the climbing forest are also in the immediate vicinity.

Great little heathland area as a nature reserve. Particularly beautiful when the heather is in bloom, and very popular with visitors at weekends. The climbing forest and Halterner Lake are in the immediate vicinity.
