The ideal combination of charm and beauty
The air and Kneipp spa town of Tecklenburg with its old half-timbered and honoured houses is bursting with medieval charm and tempts you to stay a little longer. It's simply fun to stroll through the narrow alleyways of the old town and be surprised by new perspectives time and again.
Tecklenburg is a paradise for walkers
As an ideal starting point for hikes, Tecklenburg offers a well-marked hiking network with a selection of flat routes, gentle or steeper passages.
