Maps and trails
Geographically, the city lies between the Teutoburg Forest and Münsterland. The idyllic landscape is characterised by meadows, fields and rivers. A highlight of the region are the numerous castles and palaces, such as Nordkirchen Castle or Vischering Castle.

Culturally, Greven has a lot to offer: Visit the Liesborn Abbey Museum with its impressive works of art from the Middle Ages or experience the historic charm of the town centre on a walk through the old town.

For outdoor enthusiasts, there are many possibilities: Hike along the picturesque hiking trails through the Teutoburg Forest or cycle along the EmsRadweg along the river Ems. In summer you can also go canoeing or swimming.

Greven also has a lot to offer in the way of culinary delights: Try local specialities such as pumpernickel bread, Kornbrand schnapps or Westphalian ham in cosy local inns.

Special events take place here all year round - from the traditional Christmas market to the annual town festival in summer. Even if it rains, you can still be entertained in a variety of museums - such as the Ahlen Art Museum or the LWL Museum of Natural History in Münster.

Greven and Steinfurt are definitely worth a trip. Visit the historical sites, enjoy nature and be inspired by the culture and culinary delights - there is something for everyone here!

    Eine wirklich sehr schöne Tour. Da die Brücke über die Ems kurz vor Gelmer noch nicht wieder fertiggestellt ist, mussten wir einen sehr schönen Waldweg zwischen Emsaue und Standortübungsplatz benutzen. Aber auch dieser Umweg hat sich gelohnt. Insgesamt sind wir aufgrund des Umweges 66 km gefahren. Die Tour kann ich nur empfehlen :)

    Wirklich eine sehr schön zusammengestellte Tour , leider war auch eine Brücke gesperrt und somit mußte etwas umgeplant werden . Wunderschön die Strecke an der Werse entlang und sehr wenig Hauptstraßen . Fazit: sehr empfehlenswert !!!!!

    Runde ist derzeit nicht machbar wie hier dargestellt, da der Teil auf dem Emsdeich wegen Bauarbeiten gesperrt ist. Die Ems kann dort nicht überquert werden. Wann die Sperrung aufgehoben wird, stand nicht auf dem Schild.

    Ein wunderschöner und anfängerfreundlicher Weg. Wir sind mit dem Zelt gefahren und haben problemfrei, auch ohne Vorbuchungen, Übernachtungsmöglichkeiten gefunden. In Rheda-Wiedenbrück und Papenburg ist die Beschilderung leider nicht so übersichtlich, da empfehle ich ganz klar eine Karte. Sonst ist der Radweg sehr gut ausgeschildert, die Wege angenehm zu fahren und die Aussicht wunderschön.

    Auf jeden Fall eine tolle Tour. Leider sind ein paar Brücken gesperrt (Juli 2022), ergo sind ein paar Aufweicher nötig. Auf jeden Fall die Rieselfelder mitnehmen.

    landschaftlich schöne Runde mit viel Wasser: Kanal, Ems und Rieselfelder ... etwas viel Teerpiste unter den Füßen, aber auch immer wieder feste Wege und am Ende ein wenig Waldweg.
