NORTH PATH 1/24...
Saw it by chance and hiked the first one today.
3 women and 2 dogs on the way along the Börde Sittensen North Path.
Many different paths: from asphalt to forest path and moor path; once also due to a slight flood of water 😅.
Nothing stops us: just right through.
Very nice path and a lot …

Today another wonderful hike with the "Freilauf Vissel" from Visselhövede. 😀 We started at 10 a.m. in Sittensen and hiked clockwise on the Nordpfad Börde Sittensen.🌞

A beautiful varied route! This went along a beautiful piece of peat area that ended at the Tister Bauernmoor. We saw a lot of peat fluff and in the autumn thousands of cranes can be seen here.

A top tour in the series of northern path hikes. The circular route starts at the 🅿️ at the Sittenser Wassermühle. There is also an overview map of the route. This is very varied and beautiful. The highlight is certainly the area around the Moorbahn on the Tister Bauernmoor. The path is completely signposted.

For me, the NORDPFAD Börde-Sittensen is one of the top trails in the NORDPFAD series, even though the trail is often controversial in the community. Yes, the trail in the Tister Bauernmoor is more like a one-way street than a circular route. And it's also true that you walk through some residential areas and encounter some boring straight-ahead sections.

When you get off the bus, you immediately see the "access path sign." There is also a signposted access path to the Kuhbach-Oste northern path, which is almost …

Start and finish: ZOB bus stop, Sittensen

Today again on the north paths (see also my other tours at komoot.de/collection/1706048/-nordpfade?ref=undefined )

As with my route tours, I always try to travel by public transport or (as here due to time constraints) by car, but at least start there. Simply has the additional advantage that you always see something of the …
