The former gravel lake in the Weseraue near Wietersheim has long since developed into a true natural paradise. Various species of birds can be observed on the small islands all year round, and they also breed there. I have enjoyed cycling the cycle path along this wonderful lake landscape for years. Even if the previously paved path was "shredded" years ago and has unfortunately been a gravel path since then. It is now reasonably easy to drive on again.

The pictures of Lake Steinhude, the Münchehagen Dinosaur Park, and the Minden lock have absolutely no place here.🙈 😡Please remove them from this highlight! Thank you.😊
