Holte Castle

Highlight • Castle

The picturesque moated castle is privately owned, so it can not be visited. But also from outside worth a look at the castle. Especially nice: On sunny days, the castle is reflected in the water of the moat.

October 10, 2021,Rund um Schloß Holte-Stukenbrock Radrundweg (SHS1)

On Sunday with the most beautiful autumn weather and sunshine, we spontaneously decided to go on a tour on the Schloss-Holte-Stukenbrock-Radweg 1 (SHS1) in the afternoon. However, due to the beautiful weather, the devil broke loose at all highlights.

There were a lot of nice things, but I'll knit the next round myself; I don't like bike lanes on highways! They must be avoided as much as possible.
I made changes during the tour.
