Ankum – Restruper Hünengrab
Stage 5
Before leaving Ankum, it's worth having a tour of the Parish Church of St. Nicholas, which, with good reason, is also referred to as the "Artländer Cathedral". The 80-metre-high tower is a landmark which can be seen from far around Ankum.
Order the 2nd edition of the Hünenweg hiking guide from Conrad Stein Verlag. On 127 pages you will find detailed information about your hike from Osnabrück to Groningen.
The Hünenweg leads you along the beautiful Lake Ankum up to the "Maiburg" hill, which is located in the Natura 2000 protected area.
A great many legends surround this old area of forest. Learn more about the legendary stories which are said to have taken place at the Hexentanzplatz (Witches' Dance Floor) and marvel at the evidence of the devil at the Näpfchenstein at Restruper Hünengrab.
