View of the Niers River and Niershorst Airfield

Highlight • Viewpoint

When the weather is nice, equipped with a picnic basket, watch the flight operations from Niershorst on Niersdamm. Every now and then the paddlers from the Niers say hello. Like holiday.

With a decent wind and some dark clouds (but no rain!) we cycled on the railway line to Kaldenkirchen. The route is pleasant to drive, but only moderately varied. But true to the motto "The goal is the way" the reward came in the nice Hofcafe Alt Bruch (thanks for the tip, Theo Beijers!).

July 11, 2021,Von St.Tönis zu den Krickenbecker Seen und zurück,( Variante 1 ).

The Lower Rhine is a dream to go by bike. The Krickenbeck lakes are very often a popular destination. We run three variants, a short, a medium and a slightly longer one. This is the short and therefore variant 1. The other variants can be found on our profile.

Small home round that is good to drive. The highlight is the sales booth at the fruit farm. In my opinion, there is now delicious ice cream there.
