Hiking

This hiking tour begins at the local Alltagshilfe e.V. in Sinningen, initiator of two forest adventure trails. From there, the route takes you to Hermeler See, an idyllic place to relax and fish.

A worthwhile detour takes you to the Ems bridge at Reinermanns Steg, which is also part of the Ems cycle path. Further along the route is the Schipp-Hummert forest hotel, ideal for a rest, before making a wide loop through the farming community to the historic Sinninger mill, which today serves as a fire station.

The Sinninger Veen nature reserve around an old Ems waterway is then on the route, characterized by dunes, forests and an orchid meadow. Just before the finish, Willis Beer Glass Museum invites you to visit with over 13,000 beer glasses from all over the world.

Ems bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The whole landscape here is wonderful; the bridge blends in as if it had always been there. All around are idyllic spots for resting, sunbathing, picnicking, or simply relaxing.

Sinninger Mill

Highlight • Monument

The Sinninger Mühle is one of three Dutch-style windmills still preserved in the Steinfurt district and is therefore of regional importance. As a listed building, the mill was entered into the monument list of the municipality of Saerbeck in 1996 and was thoroughly restored in 2000/2001. Unfortunately, the drive technology is not fully preserved and the grinding gears no longer exist. However, the wing shaft with the cogwheel is still functional, so the wings occasionally turn in the wind.
