The boulders that stick out here and there from the grass and look lost and strange in the boggy surroundings raise the question of their origin. The colors of the …

Brackvenn Moor Ponds

Highlight • Lake

In the area of the Brackvenn near Mützenich there are always wonderfully situated moor lakes, some of which, the so-called Palsas (Palses), are witnesses to the Ice Age.

View of Brackvenn Moor

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Especially when it rains or after longer periods of rain, the partly natural paths are very muddy. Distant views are only possible to a limited extent due to the dense vegetation.

Forest Trail in Brackvenn

Highlight • Trail

This path leads directly to Brackvenn, a fascinating landscape that can be easily explored from boardwalks. Special sure-footedness is not required in the Brackvenn.

October 16, 2022,Brackvenn - Savanne, Biber und Pilze

It went over footbridges, roots and partly very muddy paths (but you could dodge everywhere) criss-cross through the Venn. Colorful landscape, beaver ponds and dams (unfortunately the moor beaver 🦫 itself didn't show up) and lots of …

Nice tour to get to know, which we would have liked to have extended if the snow hadn't been so muddy. In addition, some sections of the path were not accessible due to defective boardwalks.

We will make up for it.
