Here you hike through the beautiful floodplain landscape on the Werra. Trees, meadows and wonderful nature surround you and of course you always walk along the river.

Werre River at Sielbrücke

Highlight • River

A canoe club uses the Werre River on the dammed side.
The existing path on the forest side will have to make way for it after the river is redesigned …

Werre Riverside, Bad Oeynhausen

Highlight • River

It is probably one of the most beautiful sections of the Werre. The boats in front of the weekend houses create a fantastic picture. It's beautiful to ride the bike path on both sides.

June 1, 2024,🚀Tom's kleine 🌛🥀Mohnfahrt 🚀 🚴🥀😉🤩

Since I love poppies so much, I went on a little 🚴 tour to the Weser today to enjoy the flowering season.
The flowering season of the water lily🪷 has also begun and that is always a highlight for me 🙏👍.

Very nice bike tour along the Else and Werre on very good cycle paths. Although you rarely see the Else.

There are two highlights on the Else/Werreradweg, the recycling exchange in Bünde and the Werrepark in Bad Oeynhausen. With one, you can dispose of old equipment and buy new ones on the same tour. And that on the most beautiful cycle path in the Herford/Bad Oeynhausen region.

Along the Else-Werre cycle path to the Werre-Weser-Kuss.

I couldn't get a spot in the sun for my coffee 😥 but I did see spring ⚘️🪻🌿
Everyone was out and about, with kids and families, young and old.
But everyone was considerate, which I've experienced differently in the past.
The graduation tower in the
Sielpark is also back in operation …

Electricity 🚴 against organic 🚴😄..... the "moral winner" was "... organic" 🚴👍😄 From there it will soon be in the direction of Hamelin and from there to cycle home with the 🚴 following the Weser cycle path 👍👌😄. On the way back from Südbahnhof in Löhne we stopped at a café that caught our interest with a mural of Wallücker …

Easy tour. I really enjoy driving this route if I only have three hours to spare. There is still time left for a coffee in Bad Oeynhausen. Varied route along the water and through the forest.

May 4, 2024,Zur Shoppingtour in den Werre - Park

The shopping haul was so-so... at least I bought a new pair of shoes👟 that I can run/hike in really well 😊
On the Else-Werre and Weser cycle paths there were large groups of young and not-so-young men 🚴‍♂️🚴🚴‍♂️🚴...is it Father's Day already🤔?
