RKH Münsterland

The land is vast, but not 'flat', as the indigenous people on the Mönsterland Platt would say. The beautiful park landscape of the Münsterland consists of rivers and fields, meadows and forests. Embedded in the landscape are moated castles, palaces, churches, monasteries, farmers and riding schools.

In Westfälische it is easy to walk as far as your feet can carry, or cycle until you drop. For horse lovers, the Münsterland is not an insider tip, but a permanent value. The Dülmen wild horses in the Merfelder break are a must and the annual "Wildpferdefang" takes place at the end of May.

The 'cultural capital' of the Münsterland is Münster, the most bicycle-friendly city in the republic, located in the Westphalian Bay. Westphalian conviviality meets lively student life here. The promenade, a green belt, surrounds the historic core. The university, churches, museums, farms, not to mention the waterfront with the Hawerkamp (here, the art, culture and music scene are) make Münster a very diverse and vibrant city.

Those who want to discover individually the Münsterland, in this guide detailed information about all interesting places and landscapes as well as many practical tips, for example, to accommodations (for all budgets), walks or city tours, for cycling, horse riding, boating, golf and swimming. 20 maps and charts provide good orientation. Of course, the authors also offer good tips and recommendations about cafes, markets, farm shops and festivals. The liveable and endearing 'capital' of Münster is described in detail on 54 pages.
