September 21, 2021,Weserberglandweg: Spaziergang Bad Karlshafen

09/21/2021

Instead of sitting comfortably in the café, I put my backpack in the guesthouse and go on the next walk. Another appendage to the Weserberglandweg, this time a completely official one. There is a cliff climb up to the Hannoversche Klippen (red sandstone), where a viewing platform has been built for a view of the Weser. The view is …

May 28, 2023,Von Bad Karlshafen Würgassen zur Aussichtsplattform Weser-Skywalk

The end of our bowling tour to the State Garden Show in Höxter was a hike to the Weser Skywalk in Karlshafen. A nice, short hike to the impressive platform from 2011. The view is simply fantastic. The way back over the cliff path is quite steep, partly over stone steps, very nice. The Weser Cycle Path was bustling with …

The start is in Bad Karlshafen, first along the Weser, then up a beautiful forest path and down again to the Weser Skywalk with impressive views of the Weser Valley. It goes down over the steep cliff path to Bad Karlshafen, where coffee is already waiting for us at the jetty.

April 30, 2023,Weser Skywalk Bad Karlshafen

Beautiful short hike on the Weser Skywalk. We started at the parking lot in Würgassen, after about 600m you change to the entrance on a nice shady path that takes you to the pulpit. Here we enjoy a magnificent view 80 m above the Weser. Back down via the Karlshafener cliff climb to the footpath and cycle path to Würgassen.

February 19, 2022,Würgassen,Bad Karlshafen über den Klippensteig zurück

A small round for in between. Short but (for me) fantastically beautiful ☺️
Started in Würgassen, on the cycle path directly on the Weser, it's easy to walk. The cliff climb starts at the first houses in Bad Karlshafen, a wonderful path. You do need a bit of fitness. But once you have arrived in your suit, you are right …
