The Baltussee between Minden and Barkhausen is somewhat hidden from the Weser Cycle Path

View from the southern shore of the idyllically situated small lake. The Baltussee, once a gravel pit, has long been renatured over the decades and has developed into a unique biotope. It is somewhat hidden behind trees, just a few meters from the Weser Cycle Path, and can be cycled or walked around on meadows and gravel paths that are hardly used. If you like, you will find pure peace and relaxation here.
