You can start the round trip through the Aper Fehn area in Westerstederfeld, for example. The flat route takes you through the Ammerland park landscape and the East Frisian fen landscape. On the way you pass picturesque oak avenues, the unique Aper Tief, typical pasture landscape and enchanted moors. Again…

Hengstforder Mill

Highlight • Monument

A beautiful mill and of course a very good restaurant. After refreshment, a bike tour or walk to the adjacent nature reserve Aper Tief is recommended.

The photos are completely uninteresting, but Komoot places them in the right place on the track, making it easier for me to write the log and assign the photos.

Today I did my last "City Cycling Tour 2024" I was still 50 km away from the 1000 km in the last 3 weeks. The ambition to increase the 950 km to 1000 is getting stronger.💪 We started off in the Aper Fehrn area via Westerstederfeld - Ihorst - Aperfeld to Aper Tief. You can really relax here, it's so beautiful here by the water. On via Vreschen Bokel - Bokelermoor to Deternerlehe. Then back again via Südgeorgsfehn, past Jübberde to Klein Sander 🚣 I took a nice break there and then cycled on towards home via Hollriede - Hollwege - Halstrup. I took a few photos but somehow I always forget to take photos 🥴

We're on the road again for a long weekend! From Westerstede, we cycled into or around the Aper Fehn area! A very nice circular tour, along country roads and field paths! It's always impossible to avoid busy roads, but that was over quickly 😄! As long as there's a bike path, it's not so bad!

This tour on the day of departure of the one-week cycling holiday also showed us a lot about Ammerland and Emsland, above all nature. The Hengstforder Mühle and the art along the way were also beautiful and the closer we got to Westerstede, the more rhododendrons we could admire.

Beautiful tour from Westerstede-Westerloy through the former moorland areas. Typical Ammerland landscape and villages.

Today just followed the sign Aper Fehngebiet. Except for the part in Westerstede directly. I left that one out. Very nice tour.

Great tour, lots of meadows, water, field paths, very good road, large expanses, just good

Our round trip has its starting point in Westerstede. From here you cycle on completely flat paths through the wide fen landscape. We are accompanied by countless water trains, pass the Aper low, drive along the Nordloher low, the Barßeler low and the Jümme. We also accompany a part of the way the Südgeorgsfehnkanal and Augustfehnkanal. With wonderful impressions of the East Frisian landscape we reach Westerstede again.
