Very nice winding forest path with a fairly hard surface.

The grain windmill on the Ochtruper Berg is one of the last Dutch-style windmills of the "Wallholländer" type. Wallholländer means that the windmill stands on a wall, the hull is rigid and only the cap with the wings is turned into the wind. It is protected as a monument and is a landmark for the town of Ochtrup. The mill was built in 1848. With the demise of windmills in Westphalia, the Ochtruper mill was also shut down in 1955 until the local history association began the first renovation work on the mill in 1972. Between 1988 and 1992, a thorough renovation took place to restore the functionality of the mountain windmill. Today, windmillers from the Nobbenhuis family are once again working on the mill.

The cycle path along the Nordhorn-Almelo canal and the connecting canal is Nordhorn's version of a cycle superhighway. The cycle path stretches away from the roads from the border straight across and non-stop through the whole of Nordhorn. It is also the starting point for the "green cycle path network" in all parts of the city. Several regional and national cycle routes also run along it. Through various expansion and renovation measures, the connection has recently been further developed into a "comfort cycle path". With the completion of the "New Nino Bridge" over the Nordhorn-Almelo Canal, the "comfort cycle path" has been upgraded once again. The connection through the Nino Business Park to the main train station and the city center of Nordhorn has been significantly improved. Right of way throughout! Carefree cycling from one end of the city to the other: Since 2018, cyclists have had right of way on the entire cycle path along the Nordhorn-Almelo and connecting canal. Two intersections have been structurally redesigned for this purpose. A narrowed roadway, speed bumps, conspicuous road markings, clear traffic signs, it is immediately clear to drivers on Heseper Weg and Frensdorferhaar that they do not have right of way in these intersection areas. Traffic on the crossing cycle path must be given right of way. Thanks to underpasses, cyclists have not had to stop at the other intersections along the canal route for many years.

Very nice mill, worth a visit

Beautiful church in the shopping street of Ochtrup.

I will take a closer look at the St. Lamberti Church ⛪️ on my next visit. I'm sure you can take a photo or two there

Mountain windmill The grain windmill from 1848 on the Ochtruper Berg is one of the last windmills of the "Wallholländer" type built in the Dutch style. They replaced the post mills that were common in Westphalia at the time. The mill was shut down in 1955. In order to preserve the historic mill, extensive renovation work took place from 1988 to 1992 and from 2015 to 2016. Located in the Bergfreibad landscape protection area and surrounding area, the windmill is now a living cultural monument that is cared for with great love and commitment by the Bergwindmühle e.V. support association. This includes, for example, windmill training for its members so that they can operate the mountain windmill themselves and set the huge windmill blades in motion. On Mill Day and various traditional festivals, the mill opens its gates, sets its sails and allows young and old alike an exciting insight into the old milling trade. Groups of visitors are welcome by arrangement!
