Dive into the countryside - discover the variety between historical museums, recreation and moorland
The route starts in the city center of the young and colourful town of Espelkamp and is particularly impressive due to its variety of swimming and adventure options. In addition to the Atoll leisure pool with its fantastic sauna area, the tour also passes the new Gehlenbeck outdoor pool and the Mindenerwald swimming lake. So don't forget your swimming costume!
Nature experience is not neglected on this route either: the NABU visitor center at the Großer Torfmoor is located right next to the Gehlenbeck outdoor pool, and the route also leads through the "Große Aue" recreation and nature reserve. Those interested in culture also have plenty to discover along the route with Benkhausen Castle, the Automatenmuseum and Ellerburg Castle.
