Part 02: Natrup-Hagen – Lengerich (Stadtfeldmark) (KM 017 – 029)<\/strong>
\nSaturday, 12 October 2024<\/strong><\/h6>\n

For anyone who’s checking my route of the Westphalian Way of Saint James<\/a> [DE] on a map, I need to state that I did not just walk the 9 km to the centre of Lengerich, but even further; to its outskirts, if you like. It’s a small town which encompasses quite a few villages and one of those – Stadtfeldmark – was where I ended my trip yesterday and hopped on the bus to take me back to a train station.<\/p>\n

The original plan had been to hike a bit further, but due to cancelled and delayed trains in the morning – and also poor planning on my part re: parking near the train station – I arrived at my starting point of yesterday’s hike two hours (!!) later than originally planned! The bus I needed to get on at the end only goes once per hour and I was expecting more train trouble on the way back, so I stopped my walk early than planned after about 5 hours. Took the bus at 15:15, was home at 18:30-ish.<\/p>\n

Anyway, it was a lovely day out. I once again purposefully stayed off mails and social media for the day. On my 2nd outing I brought a mat to be able to sit down anywhere I like without fear of getting my clothes dirty or wet (and also not to sit on something too cold). Unlike last time the route yesterday took me mostly through rural settings, farmland, forests and all that, which was lovely. I didn’t see as much “Indian summer” foliage as I had liked to be honest, but some which was nice.<\/p>\n
