A unique heath landscape
In recent decades a unique heath landscape has developed on the very nutrient-poor and dry sandy soils. The area is home to extremely rare and endangered plants and animals, as well as many big game. Since the Brachter Wald is closed to motorized traffic, you can walk and cycle leisurely here. Various hiking, cycling and Nordic walking routes have been set out.
With experienced depot guides you can take a cycling excursion from the Witte Stein border crossing, weather permitting. During this excursion you will be extensively informed about the military past and the nature reserve. The VVV Beesel/Reuver has clear maps with routes through the Brachter Wald and offers information about the bicycle excursions.
