Marc is right, you should go there!

Whether on foot or by bike, it's highly recommended!

Unfortunately, the point is a construction site. The totems have been dismantled, and the interior is cordoned off with a construction fence. I hope the renovation doesn't take too long.

We feel a special connection to some places. But what does that actually mean? And how does such a relationship differ from one with a person? Wheel of Fortune Exercise: Inner Developmental Goals 3 - RELATIONSHIP As humans, we are born in need of help. Other living beings are capable of survival from birth; we depend on other people to feed us or protect us from cold and heat. And we organize the world so that it benefits and protects us. The fact that we are social, intelligent, and adaptable beings is our recipe for success. Living together is (not) a stroke of luck. Look for examples from your own life where this coexistence works well. And consider how the attitudes and feelings below contribute to this. (1) Appreciation Approach others and the world with a fundamental sense of appreciation, gratitude, and joy. (2) Connectedness A strong sense of being connected to or part of a larger whole, such as a community, humanity, or a global ecosystem. (3) Humility Being able to act in accordance with the needs of the situation without concern for one's own importance. (4) Empathy and Compassion The ability to treat others, oneself, and nature with kindness, empathy, and compassion, and to cope with the associated suffering.

As the second-largest tributary of the Emscher, the Boye River also long served the same role as many rivers in the region, resembling a slurry basin. This has changed significantly in recent years, and since 2023, almost its entire length can be cycled, with the wind in your hair and fresh air in your nose. The Emscher bullhead isn't the only one that has waited decades for this transformation. Since the Emscher estuary into the Rhine has also become barrier-free for fish, herons and other birds are once again finding food here. A little further upstream from here, the Hahnenbach River flows into the Boye River; its renaturation was completed in 2011.

Absolute highlight on this route. So beautiful 🥰.

Even when the water level is low, the reed beds look very attractive.

Great location, a mystical place at dusk, with the dead trees in the lake.
