I'd like to assign a couple of days to this area, maybe do some biking if the wind and weather are agreeable. Does anyone here have any tips to share... which towns to visit or stay in, prime places for modest bike rides? Thanks.

Thanks. I'm pretty flexible. Will be entering Germany by rail from NL, possibly near Bad Bentheim, or possibly further north after leaving Groningen, so I think anything north of Bad Bentheim could be in my sights,

Quite a few youtube videos on cycling there. All in German I think. ‘Klaus fahrt Rad’ is the one I have watched

Appreciate all the input. At this point I've learned there's enough to see/do that we will need more time in this area - maybe a week or longer - than we actually have available on this year's trip. Ahh, the more I trim the bucket list, the fuller it gets! I'll see about this sometime in 2025. Thanks again.
