Trail Reviews
This short, nice circular tour takes us over the Teutoschleifchen Schachselwiesen, a premium walking trail, and is based on the motto "Natural deceleration at no cost". The hike begins and ends by walking a short distance along the idyllic Mittelland Canal. The rest of the hike leads through different natural areas of a typical Westphalian rural landscape with its rich flora and fauna. --- This hike is part of our collection: "Hiking in the Tecklenburger Land" https://www.komoot.de/collection/1464991/-wandern-im-tecklenburger-land
A very nice, relaxing route... Easy to run, with no inclines and minimal asphalt...
A very nice round. Lots of forest, so nice and shady and cool. On a part of the forest there are small dinosaurs by the wayside. So it's also something for smaller children. We started at the campsite Weißes Moor. However, there are only limited parking spaces available.
This morning a round with my dear friend / neighbor Margret was on the plan. Since I urgently had to go to the Mettinger farm shop Ruthemeyer-Tüpker, Margret had the choice between Recker Moor and the Schachselwiesenrunde. Of course we had our tea break on the way. Very relaxing! 😊😀👍
Somehow a dragon got lost on the Mittelland Canal. storks too.
Very nice way. No asphalt, it goes through forest and meadows. In the golden light of the autumn sun you can really enjoy nature.
I have seen the Schachselwiesen several times with other hikers. Finally did the tour myself. A varied tour with the Mittelland Canal, meadows, fields and forest. Many deer can be observed here. Someone creatively placed dinosaurs on the side of the road.😂
Today I was on the road again 🥾🌾 with my sisters 👯 ♂️🍁🍂 and little Knut 🐶 who also bravely walked almost the whole distance ➡️ 🐾😊

A very beautiful, idyllic hiking trail. Now, at the end of October, the paths are quite muddy in places, especially since tractors and excavators have churned them up. However, we were rewarded with perfect porcini mushrooms.
