A few benches along the shore of Lake Aue invite you to linger. However, the view is now overgrown in most places.

The Bislicher Island is one of the last large Rhine floodplain areas in Germany and an important nature reserve near Xanten. It offers a protected habitat for rare bird species such as wild geese, cranes and sea eagles. In addition to extensive wet meadows and oxbows of the Rhine, there are well-developed hiking trails and observation points for nature lovers and photographers. It is a hotspot for migratory birds, especially in winter. 🌿🐦 📷
