Großmicketal – Großmicke Valley near Wenden
Arbeitsgemeinschaft Biologischer Umweltschutz im Kreis Soest e.V Verified partner
The first of the five nature reserves is the "Mittagsbrüche", a large wet meadow complex, adjoined by small areas of arable land. Next comes the relatively small "Wendequellgebiet", which forms a kind of stepping stone on the way to the "Wiehbruch" Nature Reserve. Passing the Dörnschlade Chapel of pilgrimage, you come to the Großmicketal Nature Reserve. Finally, there is the Biggetal Nature Reserve with its wide floodplain in which the river is largely free to develop as it will.

Parking
The best starting point for a bike tour is the car park in the floodplain of the Wendebach stream, directly below the Wenden town hall. You can also park your car at the blast furnace museum "Wendener Hütte" but parking space is limited there.Coordinates
Equipment
Since there are hardly any paths that provide access to the grasslands, it is definitely worth taking a pair of binoculars to observe the bird life from the cycle track.Statistics
