Der "sogenannte" Nimwegen - Düsseldorf- "Steig"_Etappe_07 (K)
Die Halde Rheinpreußen am Waldsee in Moers
Es ist die größte Grubenlampe der Welt, die tausende Autofahrende auf der Rheinbrücke der A42 von Duisburg kommend täglich erblicken. Hoch über Moers erhebt sich mit dem sogenannten Geleucht eine der eindrucksvollsten und schönsten Landmarken im Ruhrgebiet.
Es ist nicht nur am Tage,…

The village of Lenne is very beautiful. A short final round before heading home again.
I will definitely visit the "saure Land" (sour land) again.
In this spirit...

On the way back to the guesthouse, it made sense to take the Brückenpfad (Bridge Path) through the beautiful Renautal (Renault Valley).
Really worth seeing, you cross about 10 (or more) small streams over lots of wooden boardwalks.

Golddorf- Route Bödefelder Hollenpfad (K)
Auf den Spuren der Hollen: Wandern im sagenhaften Bödefeld
Der Hollenpfad ist nach den Hollen benannt. Das sind kleine, feenhafte Waldfrauen. Sie sollen der Sage nach den Bödefelder Kindern Goldklumpen geschenkt haben. Die Erwachsenen waren gierig und wollten mehr. Da haben die Hollen ihr Haus versteinert und Bödefeld für alle…

Wow... what a tour.
I really enjoyed it. So much so that I took about 5 hours for these 10 km.
A pleasure tour, so to speak. I spent over an hour alone at the paddling pool, it's really well done... and really really cold!!!
This tour really had everything a hiker's heart desires.
100% recommendation!!!

Already on the way to the Wisentpfad, I noticed this place while driving through.
So I took a closer look at this building.
Let's see what tomorrow brings in the sour land 🤔🧙♂️🍼

...hmmm....🤔... when you expect to see at least a few of these animals on a hike advertised as a bison trail... and then you don't see a single one, what are you supposed to think?
One could then say, if I had stayed in Düsseldorf (Neanderthal), I would have seen them🤔
...it's best not to set your own

With the barefoot shoes to the Kurpark, there I just walked barefoot, first into the Kneipp basin, then into the natural stream... at the end into the garden of the guesthouse, there are several benches and a relax lounger with a fantastic view 👀 a beautiful day is coming to an end... 🧙♂️🍼👍

Whether you look at the city👀 is up to everyone, I had imagined something more, especially "historical" flair. 🤔
Now it's off to the garden onto the lounger & with a book... or a quick trip to the Kurpark into the Kneipp basin...
Tomorrow it continues 🧙♂️🍼👍

What a great start ☺... it started in the drizzle at 16.5°... it was really fun to trudge through the damp forest... but unfortunately a lot of these big mosquitoes... many resting benches... fantastic views...
Great... and even two Kneipp pools in the village 👍👌
