バート・エーンハウゼンのおすすめツーリングルート

A very nice cycle path along the Werre river

Is a very nice view of the monument

There are excellent cycling paths along the entire Weser Cycle Route. A visit is highly recommended. From here, you have a magnificent view of the Porta Westfalica.

Bergkirchen Watermill (19th-century fittings) on a reservoir with an overshot waterwheel (diameter: 3.8 m) in an older building (18th century?). The mill was converted from an undershot to an overshot drive in the 19th century. Two grinding mills and an oil mill with a pan grinder and hydraulic press are present and functional.

The Holzhausen windmill at the Porta (also called Maschmeyer's Mill; Mill Route No. 38) is a Dutch windmill with a plastered, conical quarry stone tower. The year of construction of the current mill is unclear (it must have been between 1807 and 1837). A royal post mill stood on the same site as early as 1740, which is known to have burned down in 1832. The wind power was replaced early on by a steam engine (1910), then by an electric motor (1927). Shortly after 1945, the mill was shut down. After years of decay, it was restored between 1987 and 1989: Its exterior is once again a beautiful windmill, while a functioning electric motor has been installed inside. Since then, the mill and the restored miller's and bakery houses have been regularly open for milling and baking days. The mill grounds are also freely accessible outside of events.

It's the section of the Weser Cycle Route between the railway bridge and the motorway bridge, where the popular long-distance cycle route crosses the river. There are certainly more striking and beautiful sections of the Weser Cycle Route than this one. I'm always glad to leave the horrible motorway bridge and the traffic noise behind me.

The lack of seating is a thing of the past. Tables and benches in the mill garden invite you to linger. At the end of the season, the tables and benches will be moved under the shed. Here, you (and your bike) can find shelter from rain, thunderstorms, etc.

Here you can linger for a while and enjoy nature.
