Time out by the canal in the circus wagon

The circus wagon "Auszeit am Kanal" is located in Recke in Tecklenburger Land, right on the Mittellandkanal and in the heart of Münsterland. After a dive into the water or a canoe tour, the fruit orchard nestled among the trees invites you to linger, while deer and squirrels enliven the surroundings. Those who want to explore the region will find worthwhile destinations such as the old town of Telgte, the Werse cycle path or the Münster lock. You can reach Osnabrück in just 28 kilometers. In the evening, the day winds down by the canal while ships pass by and the little owl calls out.1

What Nomady writes

„Come down, come visit us in Tecklenburger Land! Nestled between the trees of our fruit orchard, separated from the Mittellandkanal only by a dyke, you'll find our circus wagon.“
