Through the Coesfeld Heath

11,5 km - the journey is the goal! This circular hiking trail leads in the footsteps of the mystic Anna Katharina Emmerick through the Coesfeld Heath. If you want to follow in their footsteps, this hiking tip is spot on.

Right on the way, in the Flamschen peasantry, is the house where Katharina was born, who was beatified by the Pope in 2004 because of her visions and stigmata.

You hike through the Stockum farmers, across the Berkel river and through the Coesfeld Heath. The Hasenkapelle, a popular hiking destination on the Steveder Landweg, is on the way. A path that in earlier times was the only connection between the rural population and the city.

Past a Heidesee the path then leads you back to the Goxel farmers and to the parking lot at the “Heidehof”. There you can reward yourself with a little refreshment.
