Picnicking in beautiful and unspoilt nature. This is probably one of the best ideas for a day out. It gets even more exciting at a place that is unique in Europe: the wild horse railway in Dülmen is one of the last places in Europe where visitors can still observe wild horses. And how nice it is that guests can enjoy this scenery during a relaxed picnic. There is a large picnic area with several seating options in the middle of the extensive forest and meadow areas. A great place to slow down, observe and discover.
The approximately 3.2 square kilometre nature reserve in the Merfelder Bruch is characterised by its diverse flora and original vegetation. This provides the wild horses with exactly the varied habitat they need without the need for human help. Observing the horses in their natural environment and in their original herd behaviour is a unique experience, especially for families with children. The marvellous nature in the Mehrfelder Bruch also invites you to take long walks and short bike rides in the surrounding area.
