The climb from the golf course up the trail is a great climb. Some training beforehand is beneficial.

A wooden bridge over the Ems. Divided in the direction of travel by a railing. But no real indication of THE reason?!

If you park at the large, free Lohwall car park, it is the perfect crossing over the Ems into the city centre.
