Between the Bentlage Monastery and the Bentlage Ems Lock there is a wonderful hiking and cycling path along the banks of the Ems. In parts it is a great forest path that leads through the eastern edge of the Bentlage forest-grassland complex nature reserve.

Reminds me a bit of the ghost forest in Nienhagen.
Very beautiful here.
