Day tour from Nordkirchen Castle

From Nordkirchen Castle, the route follows very flat cycle paths southwards to Werne. The cycle path is framed by fields and meadows almost the entire time and only occasionally crosses a country road. At the market square in Werne, several restaurants and cafés tempt you to take a break. As soon as Werne is behind the cyclists, the surroundings become rural again. Small wooded areas mark the section of the route up to Westerwinkel Castle. A circular route begins in the courtyard of the castle and offers beautiful views of the castle. The restaurant at the golf course offers another opportunity to fortify yourself for the journey to Nordkirchen Castle.
