Hohenholter Forest Path

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Great forest path that is probably inevitably driven by most visitors to Hohenholte. Either on entry or on departure. It is worth taking this route.

Although only an outside tour is possible, the meadow in front of the moat at the tower room invites you to spread out your picnic blanket. And for those who don't have a blanket with them: there is also a bench. So just come, stop, rest and look.

Schlautbach Forest Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Beautiful forest path on the Pättken known for the Münsterland. Therefore sometimes a bit narrow and with roots, but beautiful.

Very nice tour through fields and forests on good and sometimes very narrow cycle paths.
The castles and manor houses are of course an attraction.

A beautiful route, but you have to like mud and mud, because there are a lot of sand and forest paths to drive. Will be very nice again from March / APRIL. Unfortunately, Hülshoff Castle was still closed, as were other sights.

After a few hikes, it was time for a bike ride again. So we went through books and maps and found what you were looking for in the book Radeln für die Seele Münsterland.
Because with the weather forecast it should be nearby and not be too long. Parked at the BHF in Havixbeck and off to the bike, after …

Nice tour from the book "Radeln für die Seele -Münsterland" around Havixbeck. The start is at the Schapstetten hiking car park.
From there it goes directly over the mountain to Havixbeck.
Intermediate destinations were Hülshoff Castle, Rüschhoff House and Stapel House.
There are 15 more in this book, by the way
Tours in the Münsterland.

I started this tour in Appelhülsen. Unfortunately, the route to point A is not recorded here, sorry.
That was a really wonderful tour. Very varied and idyllic and fascinating. I will definitely drive it again.
