The X 12 showcases the most beautiful aspects of the Münsterland: it offers many sights and leads through the Baumberge hills, one of the region's most charming landscapes. The hiking trail begins at Bad Bentheim Castle. Haus Welbergen can be considered a "hidden gem" for lovers of historic buildings. With its princely gardens, the water castle, first mentioned in the 13th century, is a highlight of the X 12. Passing the forest lake and through the Metelener Heide, the path leads you directly to Schöppingen, widely known as an artists' village and cultural forge. Embedded in avenues, forests, or along extensive paths, the X 12 offers further sights: Haus Burlo, Darfeld Castle, the "Cathedral" of Billerbeck, and the Rorup Church.
