Blue Lake 🌊🌳

Highlight • Lake

Despite its name, the 'Blue Lake' in the Schwerte Forest just north of the Freischuetz restaurant is mostly green from algae and reflections of beech trees densely surrounding this remnant of a rock quarry that was in use for 30 years until 1873. The abandoned excavation has since filled with water and sediment. The rocks were mostly used in stabilizing the many small-scale coal mines that were dug here by early miners.

Berghofen 🌳 Lohbach Park

Highlight • Forest

The Lohbach is a stream in Dortmund that rises in the Schwerter Wald in the Aplerbecker Mark and flows into the Hörder Bach as a left tributary. The stream flows through the Berghofen area and contributes to the naming of some streets. It is 4.2 kilometers long. The Lohbach and its surroundings are noteworthy due to their natural beauty and importance for the local flora and fauna.
