View of the Ems and the Emsaue from the pedestrian and bicycle bridge in Rheine

Highlight • Viewpoint

The name comes from the time when Rheine was the first garrison town. The soldiers marched over this bridge from the clothing store on the left of the Ems to the barracks on the right of the Ems. After working hours they strived from the barracks on the right of the Ems to the bars and dance halls on the left of the Ems and back.

Bockholter Emsfähre Excursion Restaurant

Highlight • Structure

Old barn from the building ensemble of the Bockholter ferry; crooked, and in the right weather, certainly scary, so well suited for stories ...

Ems bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The whole landscape here is wonderful; the bridge blends in as if it had always been there. All around are idyllic spots for resting, sunbathing, picnicking, or simply relaxing.

March 27, 2024,Bockholter Emsfähre – Emsbrücke Runde von Emsdetten

I took the tour from Komoot and unfortunately didn't look at the route sufficiently beforehand. From Mesum to Rheine unfortunately via the cycle path along the main road. Positive: I rode despite the threat of rain and learned to take a closer look at Komoot's tours before we set off. 😀

Via Elte to Emsdetten.

A little something extra for
the refreshment and then spontaneously in Emsdetten
Steakhouse returned 🤤. After such a portion, the way back via Mesum was twice as difficult.

In Austum we got lost once on the way to the farmer's cafe Ziegenschoppen. Just keep following the road.
