Mettingen, Tecklenburg and Münsterland View

44 kilometres through settlement and woodland — from Mettingen to Tecklenburg with views into Münsterland.

The route

You start in Mettingen and cycle through hilly terrain across a landscape of settlement and woodland. Along the way you cross several streams and mill runs, cross the Ibbenbürener Aa and roll almost continuously on asphalt. An avenue shapes the route, and from the viewpoint you have a 170-degree view into Münsterland. Along the way lie eleven churches, three mills and several monuments — including stumbling stones and the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Denkmal. If you fancy a break, you'll find nine cafés and eight ice-cream cafés on the route.
