🚴 The Deelberg Gorge is a special highlight on the Münsterland Cycle Route. It's located on the section between Horstmar and Laer (Steinfurt district). The passage is about one kilometer long. The high embankments on either side of the path create a cool, almost gorge-like microclimate that is particularly refreshing in summer.

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.

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

Great paths, great views, interesting surroundings. Simply worth it.

What a cool place with beautiful hiking trails and height differences.
