In the Appelhülsen sewage fields there are three water basins, the edges of which are characterized by shallow water zones, muddy areas and stands of reeds and reeds. In spring and autumn, rare birds can be found in the NSG, which benefit from the abundance of insects in and around the waters.
The different species can be discovered undisturbed from a bird watching hut. With a bit of luck, rare species of snipe and ducks, as well as various wading birds, can be observed.

One of several newly built mountain huts. Here, too, has resorted to the style of the former Bahnwärterhäuschen back. Thus, the railroad atmosphere can still be seen today after the railway tracks have been dismantled.

Pausenhütte Nordwalde near Waterkamp

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A great refuge that is also very suitable as a resting place for larger tour groups. There are also two tables here where you can arrange your picnic. It is located on the outskirts of Nordwalde in the direction of Emsdetten. If you want, you can put a donation for maintenance in a collection box.

🚲🏠✨ The Nordwalde rest stop at Waterkamp is a wonderful testament to Münsterland hospitality and a real insider tip for anyone traveling on two wheels between Emsdetten and Nordwalde. This lovingly maintained hut is located right on the outskirts of Nordwalde and offers much more than just a roof over your head.

🚲✨ The Posten 46 Schutzhütte on the Radbahn Münsterland cycle path is a wonderfully rustic resting place that offers cyclists and hikers a very special experience. You will find this stop in the picturesque section near Horstmar, nestled in the rolling hills of Steinfurter Land.

🚲✨ The petting machine has been gone for a long time, thanks to the idiots who have to destroy everything.
