Highlight • Lake

I went on Saturday, start of the evening. The area was completely empty, only nature and silence, very nice. Good place to think.

Today we went for a hike through the Gildehauser Venn. Large parking lot available, (€1 per hour) Very varied tour, lots of forest, lots of moorland (650 m2). Certainly even more beautiful during the bird breeding season.

Very beautiful 👍 area, walk is partly through the Ven and partly through the Forest. Saw a lot of beautiful things, as in any peat area.
Seen the Harrier up close, but it is very difficult to get a good photo of it.
In the beginning it was dark weather, as can be seen in the photos, later it cleared …

After a long break, we headed through the Gildehauser Venn again today. In brilliant sunshine, it was a truly beautiful tour. The forest lake near the end of the loop is particularly beautifully situated; we were almost alone there and were able to enjoy the view in peace. On the route directly through the Venn, however, there were many people …

March 14, 2024,Gildehauser Venn (bei Gronau) mit Dreiländersee

The first rays of sunshine in March lured me outside: heath, moor, ponds, birch trees, pines and lots of animals awaited me in the Gildehauser Venn.

The nature reserve is considered one of the most valuable wetlands in northwest Germany. The first parts were placed under protection in 1938. Today the Venn covers 740 hectares, or 7.4 square kilometers.
