September 9, 2022,An der Ems – Schleuse Hanekenfähr Runde von Darme
Easy route, easy to walk, refreshment stops at Grüner Jäger halfway, Hannekenfuhr or Cafe Alte Schleuse at the end of the tour. Round trips by boat are also possible from Hannekenfahr, please note the departure times.

Today we were in Lingen, Hanekenfahr and the surrounding area 🏞🌳 I haven't been before either 😀. We saw a small bee 🐝 teaching stand 👀 I found it very interesting 😊

Today I hiked a quiet route along the canal and the Ems in great spring weather. I think you can not only see spring but also hear it 🐦‍⬛ and smell it.
A large part of the path is paved, but there is no risk of mud.

Beautiful hike through the forest, along the Ems and the Dortmund Ems Canal. After the hike, you can refresh yourself after a hard day's work in the green Jäger. There is also an outdoor terrace right on the canal, from where you can watch the ships passing by.
