Scottish Highland cattle in the Wistinghauser Senne

Highlight • Natural

That's cool. The cattle roam free and you can just walk through them slowly. That's something. But there are also alpine horses

The Wistinghauser Senne has been on our list for a long time. Since there is always a lot going on there at the weekend, we took advantage of the day off today! Nice round through the Senne and the Augustdorf dune field. The sun also came out ✴️, perfect!

Today we took advantage of the sunshine for a lovely hike through the forest and heathland of the Wistinghauser Senne and Ölbach streams. We also had a picnic by the lake 😋
It was lovely 🤗
