A very nice tour. Unfortunately, I didn't include all the mills—I'll do that next time. Let's see if you can also visit some of them from the inside.

Today we drove the first Ammerland themed tour: the mill route.
All themed tours are available online under "Ammerland theme tours", and can also be downloaded with GPS data directly into komoot.
The tour was very nice, along the Lower Saxony mill route.
Mostly easy to drive, but some of the tracks were badly damaged and you had to be …

Journey of discovery to six different mills

The Ammerland landscape has always been shaped by windmills and watermills. When the mills flourished at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, 47 mills still existed, nine of which are still functional and can be visited today. The 47-kilometer route leads to six Ammerland mills, which could be preserved for posterity …

Late on Saturday afternoon, after the rain, we set off from Ocholt on the mill route, which officially begins in Bad Zwischenahn. There is more information about the tour here and you can download it as a GPX: ammerland-touristik.de/rad-aktiv/tour/muehlenroute, I got it from here @Ammerland Touristik.

Since 1947 the mill has been maintained by the Ocholt-Howiek local history association.

Yes, almost like in Holland... so many windmills in Ammerland! We set off very early this morning, had a fantastic breakfast at the Traumbohne coffee roastery in Edewecht, and then drove the Ammerland Touristik windmill route in glorious weather. A great tour, definitely worth it. Thumbs up! 👍

A weekend in the Ammerland Bad Zwischenahn. On Friday the first tour of the mill tour started right after the arrival. Fortunately there were only a few showers that we could wait in the many beautiful and sometimes very lovingly furnished refuges. Exactly at coffee time there was another shower, because we could wait in Café Müller with cake, cake …
