The bench offers the ideal backdrop to take off your helmet, relaxedly park your bike in the soft grass, and enjoy a brought-along roll or a refreshment from your saddlebag. 🥪🥤

🪑🌊 The bench overlooking Haddorfer See at Haddorfer Seen near Wettringen is the epitome of every excursionist's dream and an absolutely perfect vantage point for a small, undisturbed break on your cycling tour through the northern Münsterland. Placed directly on the circular hiking and cycling path along the shore, this seating spot offers a fantastic panorama over the mirror-smooth water surface.

🌊🎣 The Neptunsee near Haddorf (Wettringen) is a wonderfully enchanted, pristine oasis and a wonderfully quiet retreat for a relaxing break on your bike tour through the northwestern Münsterland. Lovingly maintained by the angler association Neptun e.V., this picturesque lake rests, nestled in the dreamy heath, forest, and meadow landscape around the Haddorfer Seenareal.
