Several paved paths lead through the nature reserve, where information boards are set up. You can explore the area on foot, but a bike is also a very good option. The Hollerdeich between Borgfeld and Oberneuland and the observation hill at the end of the Ebbensieker Weg are ideal observation sites. On the Hollerdeich there is an observation tower. Several parking places possible. Click on a P in the map to get directions to a parking. The area is also easy accessible by public transport with the bus or tram (line 4) from Bremen to Borgfeld.
