Country idyll on the site of an old remnant farm

A parking spot on the grounds of an old farmstead near Dorsten. You'll enjoy a peaceful stay here, even though the motorway is less than five minutes away. It's only a few minutes on foot to the Lippe and the Wesel-Datteln Canal, where a small restaurant sits by the water in summer. Mainly birds in the morning. You can paddle on the canal, and there's cycling all around. The toilet costs €2.50 per night. It's roughly ten kilometres to Bottrop with the Tetraeder.1

What Hinterland writes

„The pitch is on the property of an old remaining farm.

Quiet location with a connection to the highway in less than 5 minutes drive. Nearby, the river Lippe and the Wesel-Dattel canal are within walking distance in a few minutes.“

Sights in the area1

Halterner Stausee reservoir

A large reservoir to the north near Haltern, with sandy beaches and a lakeside loop; the closest place to swim in the area once summer heat sets in.

Tetraeder Bottrop

A walkable steel pyramid on a Bottrop slag heap, about ten kilometres away; the stairs open up a view across half the Ruhr region, best on a clear day.

Halde Haniel

A man-made mining heap near Bottrop with a Stations-of-the-Cross path and a ring of painted totem poles; up top you stand above the region's chimneys, good for sunset.
