Split tree in Wahner Heide

Highlight • Natural Monument

I find that there are only a few places like the Wahner Heide, where you can find several different vegetation zones in a small space: From the dunes over birch and beech forests to the heath.

Rest area on the shore

Highlight • Natural

The Leyenweiher is an idyllic place. Here you can watch the ducks bobbing leisurely, enjoy the romantic water lilies in summer and, if you're lucky, watch a turtle coming for air.

June 6, 2026,Leyenweiher und Wahner Heide - von Troisdorf

The Wahner Heide welcomed me today under a lightly clouded sky. Over eight kilometers, I encountered not a single person. Only the quiet paths, the pine trees, the open heathlands, and the gentle play of the wind.
The landscape seemed paused. No voices, no traffic noise, just a pleasant silence that deepened with every step. Yellow broom still shines in …

April 29, 2022,Leyenweiher – Heimbach Runde von Troisdorf

Very varied tour through beautiful forest and heathland. Again and again beautiful views of the surroundings and finally a stop at the "Heidekönig". Great location and very good tarte flambée; but the cake is not to be scoffed at either.

Today I went a little off the beaten track and explored the beautiful side of autumn - it's always fascinating how colorful autumn can be. I was alone for almost the entire route and didn't see a soul.

January 19, 2025,Schöne Wintertour durch die Wahner Heide

Today we went on a trip to the Wahner Heide in beautiful weather. Now in winter the atmosphere is different to that of last late summer. The low sun creates a special light atmosphere and the hoarfrost covers the meadows and trees.

Heimbach loop from Lind - A winter hike with Davina

On a cold January morning we start our hike in Lind, enveloped in the quiet winter atmosphere. The air is clear and fresh, the frost paints fine patterns on the blades of grass along the path. Davina, my faithful companion, walks ahead cheerfully, her Lagotto curls even fluffier in the …

April 7, 2024,Wahner Heide - die Ginsterblüte und Maigrün

Sunday afternoon, out and about in the Wahner Heide near the city. I'm not alone with this idea today. That's clear from the approach. Parking space is scarce. Still beautiful, today with t-shirt weather, lots of fresh green, yellow broom, happy butterflies and of course lots of sand under your feet. Always beautiful, always different... and just around the corner!
