Nienburg Market Square

Highlight • Settlement

Definitely worth taking a break in Nienburg on the Weser cycle path. The market square is really idyllic, but the rest of the town is also worth seeing.

Beautiful cycle path through the nature reserve on the Weser. The marsh landscape is characterized by regular flooding and is a habitat for many different animal species.

Renaissance Gate of Drakenburg Manor

Highlight • Monument

The Drakenburg Church is very nicely located, perhaps a bit out of the way, but the visit to Drakenburg begins with beautiful pictures.
Beautiful old houses at Burgmannshof and the beautiful Renaissance archway.

July 2, 2023,Fulda-Weser-Radweg / 6. Etappe: Petershagen -> Verden 🌥️🌬️🚴‍♀️💦⛵️

It can always get worse...today there was a constant storm, gusty west wind (wind force 10 felt)...would probably be more suitable for a sailing boat trip...always close to the wind 🥵

The track itself didn't give much. Most of the time we went across the flat country, I only saw the Weser when crossing it. Interesting photo motifs were rare. …

Minden has a lovely pedestrian zone, and people enjoy sitting outside in cafés and restaurants without any distracting metal. We're up early again today. Fish takes the train home, and I add a bonus ride along the Weser to the Rhine tour. Quietly and …
