バートベントハイムの天然記念物・トップ20

In the Franzosenschlucht near Bad Bentheim you can climb over sandstone rocks and walk through a hilly landscape. Behind the open-air stage in Bad Bentheim there is a forest area that is ideal for a walk and climbing: the Franzosenschlucht. The name comes from the fact that in 1795 French troops conquered Bentheim Castle. The soldiers are said to have set up camp in the hidden gorge. Today a road (B 403) runs through the gorge, with two hills rising on either side. On one is the open-air stage, on the other the forest area, both connected by a bridge. The hills owe their rock formations to a former quarry, the origins of which date back even further than the French siege. Sandstone has been mined in quarries in Bad Bentheim since the 11th century.

Narrow path along the top, down to the right and left. Beautiful view. No bike path. Soft forest floor. Nice for walking.

Yes, the country needs great new trees 👍☺️🙈🙊🙉

I would recommend that some people study komoot's tips on the topic of "good highlights" instead of posting HL "signposts".

There are dozens of these trees in the Bentheim Forest. To mention only one species would be unfair.

Great narrow ridge path that I highly recommend.

Are there also outdoor options there, e.g. camping ⛺ in the forest etc, because just walking is too boring for me.

Super nice walking path and, above all, wonderful silence
