Today we were hungry for cake and wanted to "earn" it. That's why we set off on our eBikes from the bridge over the Ibbenbürener Aa (Groner Allee; parking for cars available). Overall, a very nice bike tour without any major climbs and, importantly for us, as far away from main roads or bike paths parallel to main roads as possible. Without wanting to advertise: Friends of home-made cakes are in good hands in this café.
