Today we cycled through the Bentheim Forest again towards Schüttdorf. Then we followed the bike paths to Hoddorf, to the campsite and the marina. We stopped for a break at the village shop in Ohne and then headed back towards Bad Bentheim.

Loaded the bikes and headed home. It was a lovely time here.

On May 1, 2025, Andy and I went on a lovely bike ride in the Bad Bentheim region with Iris & Martin and Tina & Detlef. Our road captain (in waiting 😉🫢🫣🤪) Detlef had planned a lovely tour and gathered friends to ride it together.
We gladly accepted this invitation.

The starting point in Bad Bentheim is the high school (good parking). In Schüttorf it is worth stopping at the ice cream parlor (very tasty ice cream). In Ohne you can take a little rest at restaurants. The last part of the route high above the BentheimerBerg is quite steep.

Beautiful round trip from Haddorfer See. Mostly economic and forest paths, short stretches of road with their own bike path. Easy to moderately difficult (slopes near Bad Bentheim) bike tour.
