Holiday Homes in Emsland
A wonderful holiday in beautiful surroundings can be found in an unexpected corner: the Emsland region of Germany, just across the border from the northern Netherlands. Its fields and meadows reach all the way to the horizon. Explore its superb natural areas and water-rich landscape in and around the Ems River. The Emsland region is basically flat, which makes it a great destination for a
cycling holiday in Germany. Of course, you can
walk for miles and miles, as far as the eye can see. The Ems and its tributaries are great for canoeing. Enjoy your natural surroundings and discover the birds and other animals hiding amongst the reeds. Book your holiday home in Emsland now with Micazu. You’ll be in direct contact with the owner: fast, easy and much better value.
Cycling and walking in the Emsland countryside
To the west, Emsland borders two Dutch provinces,
Drenthe and
Groningen. Nevertheless, Emsland has an entirely different feel to it. Its nature, culture and many authentic villages guarantee an unforgettable holiday in Germany. Why not pay a visit to the romantic village of Fürstenau? This quaint little town serves as a starting point for enjoyable walks and cycle rides. You can rent a bike pretty much anywhere and the cycle routes are well signposted. Are you interested in the history of Emsland? Then make your way to the Emsland Moormuseum in the village of Geeste. We also recommend the Emsland Museum in Sögel, which is located in an ancient castle named Clemenswerth.
