What to expect
Hexenteich, also known as Witches' Pond, is a unique and fascinating place to visit. The pond is surrounded by impressive tree sculptures created by Serbian artist Mile Prerad, which give the place a mystical atmosphere. Visitors can walk around the pond and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery. The area is also suitable for hiking and outdoor activities, with trails such as the Rund um Oesbern trail, which offers great views of the surrounding landscape. Additionally, the nearby town of Menden has a historic center with notable landmarks like the St. Vincenz Parish Church. The Hexenteich is a great place to relax and enjoy nature, and its unique sculptures make it a source of creative inspiration

Hiking in the Ruhr area with children
Activities: We went on a Mittelgebirgswanderung (low mountain hike) and reached the Hexenteich. We saw Schildkröten (turtles) and some several meters high, kunstvoll geschnitzte Holzstelen (artfully carved wooden steles)
Highlights: My son was impressed by the Schildkröten (turtles). It was a highlight of the hike. We enjoyed the views over the Bergwelt des Sauerlands (mountain world of the Sauerland) and access to Bäche (streams) ✨
