We say goodbye and move on to our next destination.
Today we are meeting with some other members of our club to clear the Venner Moor on Saturday.
Opportunity for a cozy preparation evening with club friends.
De-bushing a moor? What is that?
Under professional supervision, we clear the moor of unwanted trees so that the water stays in the moor.

We meet with representatives of the Biological Station and Terra Vita, get some explanations and tools and spit in our hands.
A lot of regrowing trees (mainly birch trees) have to be removed, as they undesirably remove water from the moor.
There's no chance we'll manage the area alone that day, but we've managed to clear a decent chunk.
To support the further work, we presented a donation check before returning to the overnight camp.
The evening ended with a delicious buffet in the restaurant next to the square, with pleasant conversations and a beer.

Very nice, paved pitches on a small area between the bathroom and the car park for €15 per night. Supply and disposal as well as electricity up to 1500 watts for a small fee.
You can hear operating noises from the swimming pool technology, but that doesn't bother us.

It is 3 km from the parking space at Nettebad to the city center.
A lovely walk in glorious weather. It goes through residential areas, past a train station, into the beautiful old town and through the many pedestrian zones.
Osnabrück has a number of historic buildings and churches worth seeing. One of them has a model of the city's boundaries in the 17th century on display.
We liked it very much.
A delicious dinner at the Rampendahl brewery was a worthwhile way to end the day before heading back home. We recommend making a reservation here. It is very popular.

Monday is ladies' sauna day, so we don't get to visit.
We picked out a 40 km cycle route through the old town and out into the countryside on Komoot and will complete the route after the sun has warmed the air a bit.
Out towards Lotte and the Steinfurt district. Partly a very beautiful route with a view of the Teutoburg Forest. Then through the old town and a few purchases back to the parking space. Can be done easily with e-bikes. Without electricity you need good bikes and sometimes muscles. There are a few long climbs.

Loma sauna in the Nettebad Osnabrück.
We didn't know that yet.
The parking space costs 15€ per night.
At least you get a €5 discount on the entrance fee for the sauna day. Since we stayed for three nights, we both got the discount.
Plus a 2€ diversion discount, as the pool can currently only be accessed from one side due to construction work.
For the remaining 23 euros, this was an inexpensive pleasure.
A good selection of saunas, well-maintained and clean facilities. There were also very few visitors.
A very relaxing day visit.

After breakfast we continue.
After a few purchases, we decide to visit the Osnabrück Industrial Museum.
This fits in perfectly with the persistent fog forecast for today.
Before we visited the interesting museum, we went on a 10 km hike.
Take the circular hiking trail up to Piesberg, down to the Sequoia and back again on the circular trail.
Unfortunately, because of the fog, we couldn't enjoy the magnificent view that you would normally enjoy from the lookout point. It's a shame, because we had to fight hard to reach the summit at a height of over 180 meters with several climbs and even more steps.
Overall a great destination.

For the next two nights we go to the motorhome port next to the campsite.
If you arrive around 6:20 p.m., the reception is closed. However, everything can be done at one of two machines.
17€ per night, instead of 25€ at the campsite.
The place initially makes a luxurious impression. Let's see what it looks like when the lights are switched on again...

We are not far from the meeting point for the tree planting event this weekend.
The second day in a row with foggy, cloudy and cold weather.
We spent the day hiking around the Alfsee with a shopping stop in Alfhausen. The lake is a bird sanctuary and is well received by the clientele ;)
After coffee, we took a short walk to Rieste to do a few more shopping trips. The cargo space is limited on foot. We did manage to cover a good 20 km today.
The day is over. The area is ideal for long walks and certainly also bike rides.
Sauna is available directly on site. Escape room, go-karting, ...
In summer there are even more activities on offer here. Water skiing and swimming lake, for example.
A family campsite with every luxury imaginable. There are still a few campers here. Of course, there aren't many children.

A parking space next to the clubhouse without sanitary facilities, but supply and disposal as well as electricity via coin systems.
It's quite nice to stand here.
The participants of our event tomorrow all arrived in the afternoon. The day ends with a small snack, a barrel of beer, herbal liqueur from the local monastery and warming punch. New acquaintances and pleasant conversations included.

It continues about 15 km to the meeting with the forester.
We wanted to plant 1000 copper beeches between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Thanks to the perfect soil, this was done so quickly that the forester brought in another 500 trees, which we already had in the ground by 3:00 p.m. Another small contribution to climate protection.
Afterwards, there is a reserved table for the 12 participants in the restaurant to end the day in style.
Hotel-Restaurant Zum Heidekrug served us a delicious meal a la carte. Slightly expensive, but very tasty with extremely friendly staff.

After breakfast we met a tour guide for a tour.
That was entertaining and informative.
As a souvenir, we bought a monastery liqueur, the quality of which we had already been able to convince ourselves of the evening before.
Then dispose of the waste and return comfortably home.

Back home.
It was a nice round with many impressions and great encounters.
...and in doing so we have contributed a little to the future of our planet.
In about 100 years we will be able to see what stately trees our 1500 planted copper beeches have become ;)

We're postponing the final work on our ELMO until tomorrow. A small technical upgrade with a standby charger pro is also scheduled for this week.
Today it's time to chill out.
In just 10 days, ELMO will be taking us to the next tree planting event in the Düren district.
Thank you to any readers for your interest

Wir verbschieden uns uns fahren weiter zu unserem nächsten Ziel.
Heute trefffen wir uns mit einigen anderen Mitgliedern unseres Vereins, um am Samstag das Venner Moor zu entkusseln.
Gelegenheit für einen gemütlichen Vorbereitungsabend mit Vereinsfreunden.
Moor entkusseln? Was ist das denn?
Wir befreien das Moor unter fachlicher Anleitung von unerwünschten Gehölzen, damit das Wasser im Moor bleibt.

Wir trefffen uns mit Vertretern der Biologischen Station und Terra Vita, bekommen einige Erklärungen und Werkzeuge und spucken in die Hände.
Es sind jede Menge nachwachsende Gehölze (überwiegend Birken) zu entfernen, die dem Moor unerwünscht das Wasser entziehen.
Keine Chance, dass wir den Bereich alleine an diesem Tag schaffen, aber wir haben ein ordentliches Stück freiräumen können.
Um die weiteren Arbeiten zu unterstützen, haben wir einen Spendenscheck überreicht, bevor es zum Nachtlager zurück ging.
Mit einem leckeren Buffet im Restaurant neben dem Platz ist der Abend bei netten Gesprächen und einem Bierchen ausgeklungen.

Heute besichtigen wir das Venner Moor und Verabschieden uns danach von den Mitstreitern.
Der freundlichen und ausgesprochen sachkundigen Moorführerin Birgit von der biologischen Station Haseniederung unser herzliches Dankeschön für die schönen Stunden.
Wir fahren weiter nach Osnabrück und suchen uns einen geeigneten Übernachtungsplatz.
Viele der Teilnehmer sehen wir dann Freitag wieder.
3 km sind es vom Stellplatz am Nettebad in die Innenstadt.
Ein schöner Spaziergang bei Kaiserwetter. Es geht durch Wohnsiedlungen an einem Bahnhof vorbei in die sehr schöne Altstadt und durch die vielen Fußgängerzonen.
Osnabrück verfügt über eine Vielzahl sehenswerter historischer Gebäude und Kirchen. In einer ist ein Modell mit den Stadtgrenzen im 17. Jahrhundert ausgestellt.
Hat uns sehr gut gefallen.
Ein sehr leckeres Abendessen in der Rampendahl-Hausbrauerei war vor dem Rückweg ein lohnenswerter Tagesabschluss. Hier empfiehlt sich eine Reservierung. Es ist sehr nachgefragt.
Montag, 04.11.2024
Montags ist Damensauna-Tag, damit fällt für uns ein Besuch aus.
Wir haben uns eine 40 km Radrunde über die Altstadt und raus auf das Land bei Komoot rausgesucht und fahren die Runde ab, nachdem die Sonne die Luft etwas erwärmt hat.
Raus Richtung Lotte und Kreis Steinfurt. Teils sehr schöne Runde mit Blick auf den Teutoburger Wald. Dann über die Altstadt und ein paar Einkäufe wieder zurück zum Stellplatz. Kann man mit E-Bikes gut machen. Ohne Strom braucht es gute Räder und teils Muckis. Es sind ein paar lang gezogene Steigungen dabei.
Dienstag, 05.11.2024
Loma-Sauna im Nettebad Osnabrück.
Kannten wir noch nicht.
Der Stellplatz kostet 15€ die Nacht.
Immerhin gibt es dafür 5€ Nachlass auf den Eintritt für den Saunatag. Da wir drei Nächte gestanden haben, gab es den Nachlass für uns beide.
Dazu noch 2€ Umleitungs-Rabatt, da das Bad derzeit wegen Bauarbeiten nur von einer Seite her erreicht werden kann.
Für die verbleibenden 23 Euro war das ein preiswertes Vergnügen.
Ein gutes Angebot an Saunen, gepflegte und saubere Anlage. Dazu waren sehr wenige Besucher da.
Ein sehr entspannter Tagesbesuch.

Wir sind gar nicht weit weg vom Trefffpunkt der Baum-Pflanzaktion am Wochenende.
Der zweite Tag hintereinander mit neblig-trübem und kaltem Wetter.
Wir haben uns den Tag mit einer Wanderung um den Alfsee mit einem Einkaufsstopp in Alfhausen vertrieben. Der See ist Vogelschutzgebiet und wird vom Klientel gut angenommen ;)
Nach dem Kaffee noch ein kurzer Spaziergang nach Rieste um noch ein paar Einkäufe zu erledigen. Zu Fuß ist das Ladevolumen ja begrenzt. Immerhin gut 20 km haben wir heute unter die Sohlen genommen.
Der Tag ist um. Die Gegend bietet sich für ausgiebige Spaziergänge und sicher auch Radtouren an.
Sauna ist direkt am Platz verfügbar. Escape Room, Kartfahren, ...
Im Sommer werden hier noch mehr Aktivitäten geboten. Wasserski und Badesee z.B.
Ein Familiencampingplatz mit allem erdenklichen Luxus. Auch jetzt sind noch einige Camper hier. Kinder natürlich eher wenig.
Freitag, 08.11.2024
Nach dem Frühstück mit anschließender Ver- und Entsorgung steht die Weiterfahrt nach Bersenbrück an.
Dort treffen wir uns mit anderen Vereinsmitgliedern zu einer Baum-Pfanzaktion, die am Samstag geplant ist.

Es geht rund 15 km weiter zum Treffen mit dem Förster.
Von 10:00 h bis 16:00 h wollten wir 1000 Rotbuchen setzen. Das ging aufgrund des perfekten Bodens so fix, dass die Försterin nochmal 500 weitere Bäume geholt hat, die wir bereits gegen 15:00 h im Boden hatten. Ein weiterer kleiner Beitrag zum Klimaschutz.
Nachher gibt's einen gebuchten Tisch für die 12 Teilnehmer im Restaurant, um den Tag gebührend ausklingen zu lassen.
Hotel-Restaurant Zum Heidekrug hat uns ein leckeres Essen a la Carte serviert. Etwas gehobene Preise, aber sehr lecker mit ausgesprochen freundlichem Personal.
Empfehlenswert

Nach dem Frühstück trafen wir uns mit einem Gästeführer zur Besichtigung.
Das war kurzweilig und informativ.
Als Andenken haben wir noch einen Klosterlikör erworben, von dessen Qualität wir uns bereits am Vorabend überzeugen durften.

For the next two nights we go to the motorhome port next to the campsite.
If you arrive around 6:20 p.m., the reception is closed. However, everything can be done at one of two machines.
17€ per night, instead of 25€ at the campsite.
The place initially makes a luxurious impression. Let's see what it looks like when the lights are switched on again...

We are not far from the meeting point for the tree planting event this weekend.
The second day in a row with foggy, cloudy and cold weather.
We spent the day hiking around the Alfsee with a shopping stop in Alfhausen. The lake is a bird sanctuary and is well received by the clientele ;)
After coffee, we took a short walk to Rieste to do a few more shopping trips. The cargo space is limited on foot. We did manage to cover a good 20 km today.
The day is over. The area is ideal for long walks and certainly also bike rides.
Sauna is available directly on site. Escape room, go-karting, ...
In summer there are even more activities on offer here. Water skiing and swimming lake, for example.
A family campsite with every luxury imaginable. There are still a few campers here. Of course, there aren't many children.

After breakfast and subsequent supplies and disposal, the journey continues to Bersenbrück.
There we will meet with other club members for a tree planting event, which is planned for Saturday.
Parking space at the shooting club in Hemke city park. Let's see how good we like it...

A parking space next to the clubhouse without sanitary facilities, but supply and disposal as well as electricity via coin systems.
It's quite nice to stand here.
The participants of our event tomorrow all arrived in the afternoon. The day ends with a small snack, a barrel of beer, herbal liqueur from the local monastery and warming punch. New acquaintances and pleasant conversations included.

It continues about 15 km to the meeting with the forester.
We wanted to plant 1000 copper beeches between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Thanks to the perfect soil, this was done so quickly that the forester brought in another 500 trees, which we already had in the ground by 3:00 p.m. Another small contribution to climate protection.
Afterwards, there is a reserved table for the 12 participants in the restaurant to end the day in style.
Hotel-Restaurant Zum Heidekrug served us a delicious meal a la carte. Slightly expensive, but very tasty with extremely friendly staff.

After breakfast we met a tour guide for a tour.
That was entertaining and informative.
As a souvenir, we bought a monastery liqueur, the quality of which we had already been able to convince ourselves of the evening before.
Then dispose of the waste and return comfortably home.

Back home.
It was a nice round with many impressions and great encounters.
...and in doing so we have contributed a little to the future of our planet.
In about 100 years we will be able to see what stately trees our 1500 planted copper beeches have become ;)

We're postponing the final work on our ELMO until tomorrow. A small technical upgrade with a standby charger pro is also scheduled for this week.
Today it's time to chill out.
In just 10 days, ELMO will be taking us to the next tree planting event in the Düren district.
Thank you to any readers for your interest
