South Sea feeling in Münsterland

Simply wonderful to admire the turquoise blue water

Attention ⚠️ - Entry prohibited! The western biotope lake including the shore areas is not accessible all year round, with the exception of anglers from the fishing club. The eastern landscape lake is not accessible from April 1st to October 31st, including the shore areas, but various activities such as walks along the shore area are permitted during the winter months. The "Blue Lagoon" can be visited at any time on the spacious paths around the quarries. Tip! After the tour, clean your shoes thoroughly with plenty of water, as the white, calcareous surface is not good for shoes and clothing.

The Blue Lagoon, also known as the Dyckerhoff Lake after the cement factory of the same name, consists of two lakes, the biotope lake and the landscape lake, each of which is separated from each other by a dam. The Werseradweg and Cement Route cycle paths run along the dam. The turquoise water of the two lakes as well as the white embankments and banks give the Blue Lagoon a striking appearance. The clear water contains small islands with trees, which turn into a picturesque picture, especially in autumn. The vantage point on the edge offers a beautiful view of the two lakes. https://www.ruhrgebiet-industriekultur.de/blaue-lagune/

Around 80 million years ago, the Münsterland was part of a large sea. The limestone layers exposed in the quarries around Beckum are sedimentary deposits from this sea. The layers consist of an alternating sequence of clayey marls, marly limestones and marly limestones.

Very nice viewpoint from here.

The war memorial is located directly next to the former St. Martin's Church in Beckum. The west pond is also there.

Every day a horde of 20 children, including one child with special needs, aged two to school age, conquer the base area at the windmill on Höxberg. The sponsor is the DRK district association Warendorf-Beckum. Everyone should grow together through active coexistence and going on “outdoor adventures” together. Respect for people and nature also plays an important role. Source: https://www.dein-beckum.de/news/lokales/wald--und-naturkindertageseinrichtung-die-muehlenkinder-mit-neuer-einrichtungskonzeption
