Boardwalk Through the Moor in Schaagbachtal

Highlight • Trail

A particularly beautiful section of the tour is right through a swamp landscape. The path leads over a wooden footbridge past marsh grass pastures. A wooden bench, a "forest sofa", invites you to relax.

Dead Trees in the Wetland (Naturpark Schwalm-Nette)

Highlight • Natural

Bridge Over the Duvenbach

Highlight • Bridge

Very nice little bridge over the Duvenbach.
The Duvenbach flows into the Schaagbach.
The Schaagbachtal area is swampy but with various hiking trails and footbridges
very well developed.
Definitely worth seeing!

Today Tomtom had a visit from his friend, you would invite him to one of his favorite tours, right?
It was a very nice and relaxing walk. Accompanied by a beautiful bird concert, the hammering of the woodpeckers, the babbling and murmuring of the stream, the humming of the bumblebees and here and there a butterfly...🐕🐕🐦🦋🐝🌼
