Billerbeck is located right next to the "Lippe Sea". This is what the Norderteich is called by the locals. It is located in the middle of a nature reserve and bird sanctuary. Nature calls the shots here. Fresh air and the village character of the place give all guests a contemplative break from hectic everyday life.

The hike leads around the Norderteich pond and the 22-hectare nature reserve with wild boar enclosure. Along the 3.4 km, you should enjoy the diverse flora and fauna. In the middle of the route, the Entenkrug invites you to enjoy a coffee and a piece of cake in a cozy atmosphere. The viewpoint at the end of the route offers a breathtaking view over the entire Norderteich.
