The Aper Tief is a natural river course in the municipality of Apen. Coming from the east, it flows through the Hengstforde, Vreschen Bokel and Holtgast farmers and from there to the Jümme. Two retention areas were created along the river, from which a fatal nature reserve has emerged. By connecting the Aper Tiefes with the Jümme, Leda and Ems up to the North Sea, the ebb and flow of the tides can be noticed in this area with a tidal range of 60 to 120 cm.
While hiking or cycling, discover the freshwater mudflats in Hengstforde and the meadow landscape in Holtgast with its diverse bird life. Anglers will also find excellent conditions here.
