Heubach meadows

The picturesque Heubachwiesen nature reserve near Reken consists of three sub-areas: Around 467 hectares are located in the Borken district and around 155 hectares in the Coesfeld district.

With its many grassland areas and shallow waters, the area is a true paradise for numerous meadow and water birds and serves as a breeding ground for them. For example, you can find black-tailed godwits, lapwings and stonechats here. Various species of toad and frog also feel at home here. In addition to individual trees or groups of trees, crested wheatgrass, marsh rudbeckia and the cuckoo flower grow here.
