Pathway Along the Vechte Canal in Nordhorn

Highlight • Cycleway

Combined bike and Walkway on the Vechte Canal, 3.5km between Vechtesee and the green border on the Nordhorn-Almelo Canal.
If you like something a little more rustic, switch to the other side of the canal!

Former customs clearance at the Nordhorn-Almelo Canal

Highlight • Structure

Right behind the border. Idyllic canal with 1+++ cycle path and lots of places to sit. Riding here is really fun. All crossing roads are simply driven under. 👍

Heathland by the Nordhorn-Almelo Canal

Highlight • Natural

On the way along the canal, it's worth taking a short detour through the manageable heath landscape. There is also a bank there.
