Heckrinder Meadow Rieselfelder Münster

Highlight • Natural

The Heck cattle, often inappropriately referred to as "aurochs" or as a "backbreeding", is a breed of domestic cattle that emerged in the 1920s. It is named after the brothers Heinz and Lutz Heck, who attempted to breed images from various domestic cattle breeds.

Rieselfelder Münster — European Bird Sanctuary

Highlight • Natural Monument

Early in the morning you are as good as alone with the waterfowl and aurochs. Everything very quiet and peaceful. Very rewarding. Do not forget binoculars.

Rieselfelder Münster

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Natura 2000 protected area and bird reserve “Rieselfelder” is located just outside Münster. The former irrigation areas for wastewater were renatured between 1997 and 2000 and form a species-rich biotope for all kinds of plants and animals, especially birds. And a unique recreation area was created for the people of Münster!

Münster Rieselfields

Highlight • Natural Monument

A visit is not just for bird fans and hiking enthusiasts, but also for anyone who is receptive to beautiful evening moods in nature or who likes to take nature photos. My tip: In the evenings in late summer/early autumn it gets particularly atmospheric here (with correspondingly beautiful photo motifs) - as long as the evening sun shows up (at least a little bit).

On the roof of the excursion restaurant, but there are also numerous other stork nests in the surrounding area!

Heidekrug Café & Restaurant

Highlight • Restaurant

If the restaurant isn't completely overcrowded, you can take a short break here to replenish your fluids after the exertion you've undergone so far. However, you're sitting right next to the road, which isn't as busy during the week or in bad weather. The speed limit is 50 km/h, and most drivers adhere to it.

Addendum:
The road is now closed to motor traffic, with very few exceptions. Therefore, there's significantly less "noise" to disturb you!

This has been in effect since March 17, 2021.
I forgot to mention that.
