Tour of Dinkelland, Springendal and Ootmarsum

From the Zusters van Denekamp Franciscushuis guesthouse you will take a bike ride through the Twente coulisse landscape. In this region near the border with Germany it is wonderfully quiet cycling, so that you can optimally enjoy nature. You will cycle a bit along the Omleidingskanaal, just past junction 5 this watercourse joins the river De Dinkel. A little later you will cycle through the Springendal. A century ago, this former agricultural area was transformed into a lush nature reserve in the English landscape style by order of a local textile baron. At the Vasserbeek you will pass the De Mast mill, then you will cycle through the Vasserheide. Ootmarsum is a real gem of Twente. In the heart of this village you will find many old buildings. Get off your bike to enjoy the historic atmosphere.
