    Eine schöne ebenerdige Runde mit verschiedenen Aussichtsplattformen in schöner Heide- und Moorlandschaft. Wir waren am 17.04., samstags früh ab 9 Uhr da. War jetzt in der Lockdown-Zeit trotzdem flott sehr gut besucht. Parkmöglichkeiten gab es in Zwillbrock. Haben etwa 20 Flamingos sehen können, eine große Masse Lachmöwen, die ein ordentliches Spektakel gemacht haben und ein paar andere Wasservögel (Graugänse, Stockenten, Reiherenten). Haben auch die schöne Barockkirche in Zwillbrock angeschaut. in Zwillbrock gab es trotz Lockdown am Restaurant Kloppendieck die Möglichkeit einen Coffie to go, Bratwurst, Flammkuchen oder Kuchen to go zu bekommen. Auf der Runde gibt es jedoch auch einige Bänke und Picknickplätze um Mitgebrachtes zu verzehren. Wer die Chance hat, sollte dort - vor allem zur Zeit - lieber unter der Woche hinfahren.
