Vechtesee (Lake Vechte)

Highlight • Lake

The Vechtesee is located in the Nordhorn city area. There are numerous recreational options, such as renting pedal boats on the Vechte See from May to October, or exploring the area with the excursion boats "Vechtestromer" or "Vechtesonne".

You can also just cycle past it and enjoy the view over the water.

Frenswegen Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

Founded in 1394, this monastery has had a rich and eventful history. After the dissolution of the monastic community in 1815, the building served several purposes. Today, the Kloster Frenswegen Foundation, founded in 1974 by various religious communities and the Herrnhuter Brüdergemeinschaft, is responsible for the management of the monastery. A visit to the chapel, cloister and courtyard is highly recommended. A relaxing walk around the house, to the southern garden and the labyrinth is also worthwhile. End your visit with a well-deserved rest in the monastery café.

Eschweg Woodland Path

Highlight • Trail

From the Dinkel Bridge near the Busch camp, the Eschweg first leads as a fabulous, tunnel-like cycle path under trees, then temporarily as a narrow cycle path through a wild meadow, before ending as a sandy forest path at the oak avenue leading to the camp watermill.

Lage Watermill on the Dinkel River

Highlight • Monument

The little detour is worth it. Here you can not only marvel at the well-preserved watermill, but also explore the castle ruins, the Lage manor house and the historic oak avenue with the old houses of the manor house employees right next door.
