Asphalt Tree-Lined Avenue in Teutoburg Forest

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A nice road without a lot of traffic! From the direction of Hövelhof to Schloss Holte you can drive this segment to Detmolder Strasse, turn right there and a few 100m further east, turn left again onto the old Poststrasse. turn. Most of the asphalt is in good condition, but there are small bumps due to tree roots. Accordingly, you have to drive vigilantly and cannot really pedal. But overall still nicer than driving on the main road.

Scenic Descent in Teutoburg Forest Nature Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great descent on perfect asphalt. Is it good to compete? Be careful when it's wet: It gets very slippery under the trees in the second half.

Ems Springs

Highlight • River

The Ems rises from the seepage spring in the Moosheide nature reserve. First a small stream, which later grows into a river. Since I am usually in the Ems-Auen in Münster, Telgte or Einem, it was quite interesting to see the origin of the Ems. And it starts off quite small and inconspicuous. ;-) The hiking area in the Moosheide is scenically very beautiful, with many narrow to wider and sandy hiking trails, through forests and open heath areas.
