View of the Hase River between Meppen and Haselünne

Highlight • Viewpoint

Between Meppen and Haselünne, the hare flows through the Emsland in playful loops. So you always have fairytale views of the idyllic river landscape from the bridges.

July 4, 2025,mal wieder kurz los 😎 Welfen-Route – Auf den Spuren der Kornbrenner

Off we go again 😎
Today the "Welfen Route, in the footsteps of the grain distillers."
In very good cycling weather, we cycled along the Dortmund-Ems Canal to Biene. Through Bienerfeld to Clusorth-Bramhar. From here to Bramhar to the herb farm - too early - unfortunately still closed. Well, then on via Bawinkel, Klosterholte, Klosterholte-Haverbeck to Bückelte. On via Hamm …

A successful tour. Partly on cycle paths along the road, then along the canal and also many forest and meadow paths. But they were easy to ride as it was dry. A section of just over a kilometer was very bad. You shouldn't have eaten there beforehand. 😅 Otherwise, great.

A very nice tour. Unfortunately we got lost in Bawinkel. So a few km have been added.

June 10, 2022,67. Tour _ 10.06.22 Lingen-Haselünne

A nice round with many old half-timbered houses. You could drive very well on the canal and the side roads were also great. Little traffic and lots of nature. Only the piece on the street was not so nice. But sometimes you have to go that far.

June 27, 2023,Knotenpunktrundfahrt von Haselünne nach Lingen

Today from Haselünne to Lingen following the junctions. Have a nice tour! A heavy shower in between to cool down.
Conclusion: The Emsland is not in the Alps. Of the kilometers driven, I covered more than 80% without support and with frequent (head)wind.

The third stage went north-east from Lingen to Haselünne. It was a hot but beautiful tour. One positive aspect was that we often went through shady forest. The participants of our cycling tour particularly liked the area around Haselünne and the town itself.
