Looks like a wild river. But it is certainly a bit exaggerated. Still beautiful and worth seeing.

July 21, 2021,Alfsee-Tour

The starting point was possibly chosen a little less than optimal - parking was only possible on the narrow hard shoulder - a little further west in the settlement would certainly be a better place. The signposting is great - you don't actually need the GPS because the signs are completely clear (“Alfsee Tour”). => 💪

April 11, 2026,Alfsee-Tour – Rundtouren im Osnabrücker Land

The tour starts in the beautiful Bersenbrück, which you can reach excellently by train. You cycle southwest out of the city, continuously going slightly uphill as you climb the Ankumer Höhe. Here you can enjoy the wonderful Geest landscape before whizzing down in a refreshing descent to Alfhausen. Afterwards, you continue to the Alfsee.

September 15, 2023,Alfsee-Tour 🌲🌾🏄 und Kloster Malgarten⛪️

We took the Alfsee tour from Bersenbrück. Beautiful paths over rolling hills, through forests and fields. We had planned a ☕️🍰 break at Alfsee. But the season is probably over, only the camping supermarket was open. Next we take a detour to Malgarten Monastery, a beautiful complex. It's also worth going down to the Lage monastery. All in all a …

June 3, 2023,An der Hase- Runde am Alfsee

Beautiful bike tour on the Alfsee. We didn't know this area before. So off we go this weekend where no party hordes are to be expected. And so we enjoy the peace and quiet on the great campsite and the beautiful landscape on the back of our bikes...
