View of Noswendeler See

Highlight • Viewpoint

𝐆𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐭𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐞𝐞

The lake has a size of 6.6 ha. It was dammed in 1979 and is fed by the water of the Wahnbach. The Wahnbach, which rises near the Pascalhütte on the state border of Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate near Steinberg, flows north of Büschfeld into the Prims. The reservoir is the heart of the 20-hectare leisure center of the same name. Due to the strong commitment of the local associations, which are organized in the local history and tourist association, catering by the lake and a well-filled calendar of events are guaranteed in the summer season.

Noswendeler Bruch Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐮𝐭𝐳𝐠𝐞𝐛𝐢𝐞𝐭 "𝐍𝐨𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐡"

In this old cultural landscape, a wetland with a specialized flora and fauna has developed around the near-natural Wahnbach with its mill ditches. A mosaic of habitats has emerged, such as alluvial forest, fen forest, woodrush beech forest, reed beds, tall herb meadows, wet meadows, sand fields and streams. Biologists speak of a biotope complex with a high level of biodiversity. Many rare bird species, e.g. Whinchats, kingfishers and red-backed shrikes are found in the protected area. The nature reserve “Noswendeler Bruch” designated here therefore bears the quality seal “European bird sanctuary”. Source: Text information board

Super nice little tour in Noswendel with really great weather. 🌞
Despite the fact that the way is not that long, it is all the more beautiful.
I can only recommend it to everyone. 😊

The tour was mostly in the forest, and when I was outside, there were ripe apples everywhere. That's how my stomach only growled at the end of the round 😀. Otherwise it was really nice to walk, mostly narrow paths, a bit of water, everything was great 👍🏼

The 7.4 km long dream loop "Himmels Gääs Paad" in Noswendel is a beautiful small hiking trail in Saarland. The hike starts directly at the beautiful Noswendeler See. The path offers a bit of everything, from as written, a route along the lake, over forest paths and also small paths through the forest, it's all there! On the way you …

Because it was so nice last time, today with the big daughter and friend of my brother-in-law again the Himmelsgääs Paad.
It was nice again. And also really varied.
We had dry weather, rain, thunderstorms and also sunshine.
