Geographically, Sendenhorst is located between the rivers Ems and Lippe. The town is surrounded by a picturesque landscape that invites you to go hiking or cycling. Warendorf, on the other hand, lies on the edge of the Teutoburg Forest and thus offers an impressive backdrop for outdoor activities.

Touristically relevant are above all the numerous sights of both towns. In Sendenhorst, it is worth visiting Hülshoff Castle, the birthplace of the famous poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff, and Wolbeck Castle with its idyllic park. The local history museum also provides an insight into the town's history.

In Warendorf you will find the German Olympic Committee for Equestrianism (DOKR), which attracts many international guests every year. You can also admire the historic market square with its half-timbered houses or visit the state stud - one of the oldest of its kind in the world.

Cultural highlights are offered by both towns through various events such as concerts or theatre performances as well as visits to museums such as the West Prussian State Museum in Warendorf.

But this region also has a lot to offer in terms of cuisine: Be sure to try the Münsterländer Pumpernickel or the famous Warendorfer Pferdeäpfel - a sweet speciality made of marzipan.

For outdoor activities, hiking and cycling are the main options. In spring, numerous flowers bloom here and in autumn the trees turn the most beautiful colours. The Ems cycle path, which runs along the river, is particularly recommended.

If it should rain, there are also indoor options such as the cinema in Sendenhorst or a visit to the natural swimming pool in Warendorf.

In conclusion, Sendenhorst and Warendorf are definitely worth a trip! Whether for a day trip or as a longer journey - this travel guide offers many tips for a successful experience.

    Die Bahnüberquerung in Mecklenbeck ist bis auf weiteres nicht möglich. Ersatzweise kann der Eisenbahntunnel über den EV1 genutzt werden. Die Route über die Str. Liekfor führt über einen Bauerhof Hast. Ein Schild Durchfahrt und Betreten des Hofes ist verboten. Auf Nachfrage beim heranfahrenden Besitzers wurde uns die Überfahrt einmalig erlaubt.

    Landschaftlich attraktive Runde durch die stadtnahe münsterländische Natur; am schönsten dürfte der Abschnitt im unbewirtschafteten Wohlbecker Tiergarten sein, auf dem Teilstück auf dem sehr beliebten Werse-Radweg hat man es als Wanderer bei gutem Wetter mit zahllosen Radlern zu tun.
