From Melle, a challenging climb over asphalted side roads, the last route to the spring is along a forest path. Doable with a touring bike, but technically demanding with a lot of luggage. After a lot of rain, the route is also very muddy.

Not much to see at the spring - but for us, the spring is part of a river cycle path.

The source or headwaters of the Hunte is located in the middle of the forest and is therefore only accessible via forest paths.

The river Hunte rises on the slope of the Holzhauser mountain north of Melle. From there, it meanders through the forest for the most part as a near-natural stream. Due to the changing shape of the bottom and bank vegetation, it offers a habitat for many small animals. But also large animals, such as wild boars, take a refreshing mud bath near the stream.
