Wulfscher Pond

Highlight • Lake

The Wulfsche pond was then one of the Napier Barracks of the British army. Originally designed as a cooling pond, for a problem with the here stored nuclear warheads of the US Army in the Cold War. Since the British withdrew in the 1990s, nature has found its way back.

Lanstroper Ei Water Tower

Highlight • Monument

The Lanstroper egg is definitely worth a visit. Nearby is the Lanstroper lake. The mountain sinking water is eponymous for the surrounding nature reserve and is located on the Hienbergwald which is also worth a visit. Also nearby and worth a visit is the (former) landfill Grevel. The quartet is looking forward to an extended trip to the extreme northeast of Dortmund.

Kurler Busch Nature Reserve

Highlight • Forest

As a large, closed deciduous forest biotope complex, the Kurler Busch is of outstanding regional importance in the urban outskirts of Dortmund, Kamen and Lünen, which are heavily populated by settlements.
“Kurler Busch” – for someone who hears the name for the first time, it seems surprising what a large and valued forest area is hidden behind it. For people from the region, however, the name is a term that stands for beautiful excursions, diverse nature and richly structured landscapes: it is very popular not only among Dortmunders but also among residents of the Unna district.
