Tips from the Community
The heathlands and moors at the Thülsfelder Talsperre reservoir are crisscrossed by varied paths through open heath landscapes, quiet moorland areas, and shady forest sections. And every now and then you'll see one of the old, thatched sheepfolds – a beautiful photo opportunity.

A very well-developed cycle path through the middle of the forest.

Due to the quality of the trail, you now have to concentrate more on the path than on the forest, with some fairly uneven sections. Nevertheless, it's a pleasant ride and a very quiet route.

A wonderful paved bike path through the heart of the forest. It starts behind Dwergte for a few kilometers in the shade. There's also a forest nature trail along the way.
