Cycling

This beautiful circular tour starts at the train station in Voerde. From here, you'll first cycle to the Haus Voerde moated castle and then continue into the Momm-Niederung nature reserve. Through picturesque tree-lined avenues, you'll reach the Rhine, where you'll cycle along the dam to Götterswickerhamm with a view of the water. Shortly afterward, you'll leave the Rhine bank and cycle to Dienslaken.

On the other side of town, you'll be greeted by more beautiful nature. You'll cycle past Rotbachsee lake and through the Rotbachtal valley to Heidesee lake. The adjacent Pfingstsee lake and Heidhofsee lake are also magical gems. You'll finally cycle through the wide fields and meadows of the Hohe Mark Nature Park back to Voerde, where you'll reach the starting point of the tour.

The Rhine Promenade – Götterswickerham

Highlight • River

In the excursion Götterswickerhamm you can walk on the dike promenade or sit with coffee and cake in or in front of the taverns and watch the ships on the "Father Rhine".
For particularly active hikers, the 7 km long trail over the Rhine dike from Strandhaus Ahr in Götterswickerhamm to the landing stage of the ferry Walsum Orsoy behind the northern harbor in Walsum is recommended.

But if you do not want to walk this route, you can also take a cruise with the River Lady on the Rhine in the direction of Duisburg and Xanten from the boat landing stage in Götterswickerhamm.

Cyclists on the Rhine Cycle Route also enjoy the beautiful landscape and the view of the river landscape.

Hiesfeld Water Features (Rotbach Pump Station)

Highlight • Waterfall

In 1996, the Rotbach was renatured here and continues in its main dimensions now through another retention basin underground. However, so that the old riverbed does not dry out, a pump (Bach pumping station Dinslaken-Rotbach) was installed and the Rotbach runs from this point contrary to the natural flow direction. When you get off the track, you can hear the pump after the wooden bridge in the right-hand bend, left in the bushes and ride for the first time in the direction of the Rotbach stream.

Heidesee

Highlight • Lake

Directly at the intersection of Münsterland, the Lower Rhine, and the northern Ruhr metropolis lies the Hohe Mark Nature Park in North Rhine-Westphalia, where this section also belongs.
A small, glacial sandstone hill country, the Hohe Mark serves as its namesake. This wooded ridge forms one of the largest contiguous forest areas north of the Ruhr metropolis and, with the exception of a few small farming communities, is almost uninhabited.

Pfingstsee

Highlight • Lake

We feel a special connection to some places. But what does that actually mean? And how does such a relationship differ from one with a person?

Wheel of Fortune Exercise: Inner Developmental Goals 3 - RELATIONSHIP

As humans, we are born in need of help. Other living beings are capable of survival from birth; we depend on other people to feed us or protect us from cold and heat. And we organize the world so that it benefits and protects us. The fact that we are social, intelligent, and adaptable beings is our recipe for success.

Living together is (not) a stroke of luck. Look for examples from your own life where this coexistence works well. And consider how the attitudes and feelings below contribute to this.

(1) Appreciation
Approach others and the world with a fundamental sense of appreciation, gratitude, and joy.
(2) Connectedness
A strong sense of being connected to or part of a larger whole, such as a community, humanity, or a global ecosystem.
(3) Humility
Being able to act in accordance with the needs of the situation without concern for one's own importance.
(4) Empathy and Compassion
The ability to treat others, oneself, and nature with kindness, empathy, and compassion, and to cope with the associated suffering.
