You’ll then continue through Nordwalde and the Steinfurt neighborhood of Borghorst all the way to the Bagno, the park surrounding the moated castle of Burgsteinfurt. From Steinfurt, the route takes you through the Borghorster Venn, past the Füchten glider airfield, and back to the former Max-Clemens Canal. You’ll then return to Emsdetten via the Brook.
