Restoration of the Ems River below the mouth of the Axtbach

Highlight • River

The construction work has been completed and the vegetation begins. A detour is definitely worth it. You can watch nature wonderfully from the new bridge.

Ems River Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

A very nice bike path, which unfortunately gets a bit narrow when there are lots of people. Mutual consideration is key here.

Between Warendorf and Müssingen, in the Emsaue nature reserve west of Warendorf, this paved path leads through a beautiful forest. The path is very busy, please be considerate, the path is not too wide.

September 29, 2024,Fahrradtour_Glandorf-Warendorf Einen_29.09.2024

At the end of the season, we rode the eastern part of the border crossing tour with our friends. From Glandorf, the route took us via Füchtorf and Sassenberg to Feldmarksee. There we took a short break and enjoyed the view over the lake shrouded in mist. We then rode along the Ems to Warendorf. On the market square, we …

The circular route 1 is the longest of the three circular routes on the Grenzgängerroute Teuto-Ems and normally starts in Warendorf. We start the tour in Glandorf instead, where circular route 2 also starts. The tour leads us through a very rural area with many meadows and fields.

This tour starts in Ostbevern and largely follows the border crossing route. The signage changes from "red and white" to "green and white" from time to time, depending on whether you are in North Rhine-Westphalia or Lower Saxony. The paths are all easy to drive on, even if some photos might suggest otherwise. Through the towns of Schwege, Glandorf, Füchtorf, …

You should only start this bike tour with a small breakfast. There is a very good butcher's shop with lunch from 11am, very tasty and inexpensive, right on the way and many other opportunities.

October 18, 2025,Grenzgängerroute 1 Teuto-Ems

Summer closing tour 2025 – on a golden October day! Against the already low-lying sun and the northeast wind... maybe the opposite direction would be more sensible? Well-developed route with some paths and forest sections. Good infrastructure with shelters, seating, and repair stations. Highlights are the Feldmarksee in Sassenberg and the Emssee in Warendorf. Before that, it goes on the …

The Teuto-Ems border crossing route is a 150 km long circular route that can be easily divided into three shorter circuits (original gpx tracks in the link).
I started with the southernmost route today, but took a little shortcut here and there. On this tour you follow the Ems cycle path for around 12 km 👍 (ah yes, another …
