Bochum is better known for its city and the Bermuda Triangle. Away from the shopping and bar districts, the city is green and not nearly as hectic as one might think. The Weitmarer Holz in the heart of Bochum is the green lung of the district.

Hiking

Beautiful forest area in the south of Bochum. Approx. 80 hectares in size with fallow deer enclosure and wild boar enclosure. But be careful - always stay on the paths. The forest is criss-crossed with old tunnels
