On the festive weekend in August (Steinhuder Meer in Flammen) a traditional service is held here. Rest stops and a view of the Steinhuder Meer on one side and the Schaumburg Land on the other side are free.

Hiking

When the visibility is good, you can see the Kaiser Wilhelm monument in Minden. 30km as the crow flies.

Hiking

In addition to an old windmill, a large rest area near Bergkirchen invites you to take a break. The view from here is beautiful, as you can see the full size of the Steinhuder Meer from above. The view also extends to the Wiehengebirge, Wesergebirge and Bückeberg.
