Höltingstuhl Monument

Highlight • Monument

The paths to the Höltingstuhl are also easy to cycle along.

Between 1711 and 1713, a total of seven monuments were erected, which together formed a "hunting star". What remains today are the Funkenpyramide, the Tittenpyramide and the Höltingstuhl.

The significance of the Höltingstuhl goes beyond mere path equipment: it marks the court of the count's wood judge, who pronounced justice on forestry matters, which was already here before it was erected. The rectangular section of sandstone wall is correspondingly richly designed, with the inscription field accompanied by volutes and crowned with a magnificent coat of arms cartouche.

Bentheim Forest

Highlight • Forest

Nice quiet forest area. You're just not allowed into the wildlife sanctuary and unfortunately you have to cross the road to get around it.

Isterberg Lookout Tower

The Isterberg lookout tower is an ideal break station with a restaurant. We also recommend the hiking trails to the Bentheimer Klippen and of course the ascent
the tower with great views of the county, Netherlands and so on.

I actually wanted to hike around Rheine's "Blue Lagoon" this morning; that didn't happen (will make up for it later!). First, the "RE61" (from Bad Bentheim station to Bielefeld) was delayed; later, the train was canceled due to a technical defect... 🥴
