Hiking

The Rethlager springs, between Oerlinghausen and Detmold, offer a refreshing cooling off in summer. If you wander for example. on the Hermannsweg, you automatically pass it here. The 20 meter deep spring gorge is particularly impressive.

At this point, I'd like to quickly say something about the source:
And specifically, I'd like to quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909–1979), who was widely known for his wit and "Another Poem," with a short quatrain:
"There's certainly a lot of beauty in the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can also leave it alone."
(H. Erhardt)

Hiking

The Rethlager springs are one of the sights that can be reached on the Hermannsweg in the Teutoburg Forest. There are a number of other marked and easily accessible hiking trails around the springs. There is a campsite just a few hundred meters from the Rethlager springs.
