Pollard willows along the path

Pollarded willows belong to the Lower Rhine, like the Eiffel Tower to Paris. This path is so typical of the Lower Rhine that you have to have been here.

To the north of the dam, the larger part of De Wittsee offers opportunities for swimming, sailing and canoeing. The smaller lake in the south, on the other hand, is protected because numerous water birds breed here in spring.

January 23, 2022,De Witt See, mit Rohrdommel Naturschutz und Krickenbecker See

Today we wanted to have a direct comparison between the de wittsee and the Krickenbecker See, and we definitely like the de wittsee better. The landscape around the de Witt See is very beautiful and easier to walk on.
In the future we will save ourselves this path between the Krickenbecker lakes and will not walk that far if it …

A mixture of the Wasser.Wander.Welt Tour nice lakes and the Leichte.Wander.Welt Tour Leuther Mühlen-Path.
However, I only noticed that on the way. Since I ran the Nice Lakes Tour alone, I already knew a large part of the route. But that's the way it is with internet finds 🤷‍♂️
Still a nice tour and definitely worth it 👍🏞

December 20, 2024,Einmal um De-Wittsee und Krickenbecker Seen

Yesterday we went for a trip around the Nette lakes De Wittsee and Krickenbecker lakes. The sun also lured some birds out, on the water and on land.

I wish you a lovely Christmas and a happy New Year, if you don't manage to do another tour before New Year's. 🎄🎉

Have fun with the pictures and descriptions. 😊

April 14, 2024,Krickenbecker Seen – De Wittsee Runde

Today was one of the most beautiful tours we have done in our region. The route almost always led past one of the lakes and the paths were in excellent condition. We stopped off at the Tortuga Adventure Golf beer garden, which is highly recommended.

October 12, 2024,Leuther Mühlen-Pfad - Leichte.Wander.Welt. 😍

It is so beautiful on the Lower Rhine 🥰 we have already walked the WaWaWe Netteseen here. Today it was to be the Easy Hiking Worlds Trail Leuther Mühlen-Pfad. Because "easy" wasn't enough for us, we extended it by about 4 km. If you want "easy" you should follow the signs at km 7.6 ☝️. It's wonderful, so much water …

May 18, 2025,Wanderung Krickenbecker Seen und De Wittsee

For today's photos, I focused on wildlife. I've documented this route several times before. Many waterfowl are currently having babies. Komoot is once again displaying the images in the wrong order and is showing too many meters of elevation. As always, a very nice hike.
