May 10, 2025,Telgte-an der Ems lang

Today we headed to Münsterland, a beautiful, flat route with plenty of water. Telgte, a nationally known pilgrimage site, boasts a charming old town and idyllic location on the Ems River. Through the Ems meadows, past the burial mounds, we continued along wonderful nature trails, always along the Ems.

June 11, 2022,Lovely Hike from Warendorf to Telgte

We did this tour on bicycles, but would not recommend doing this because it was really bumpy and exhausting because of that. This would be a lovely hike though as it stretches along the Ems with a lot of swimming spots and nature.

January 6, 2022,Sonnige Emswanderung 🌞

Finally some sun. It’s even more beautiful to walk there😀. Today we only went along the Ems. Not varied, but very pretty and easy to walk.

October 1, 2023,Tour 19: Wilde Ufer 🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

Off to Telgte, wonderful tour on the Ems from Hiking for the Soul Münsterland. A little longer than in the book to get to the train station in Müssingen 😉 In Telgte, the bridge over the Ems at the Ems weir is unfortunately still closed. Otherwise a wonderful route along the Ems. Just to dream. Then a delicious cake in …

June 20, 2026,Entlang der Ems durch die Emsauen

The 60th and final day of our journey has dawned, and it was the 63rd tour during this time. We had booked a campsite directly on the Ems for the past night, so it was practically an invitation to hike along the Ems. There is a hiking trail on both sides of the Ems, but on the southern side heading …

What a beautiful tour, highly recommended and definitely a repeat! 🥾🫶🥾

My body isn't quite ready yet. This was the ultimate test.

The fun was somewhat dampened as I kept checking my own limits.

This tour is a modified version of Tour 19 from the book "Hiking for the Soul Münsterland".
