デルメンホルストのおすすめランニングルート

It's very nice here and the ice cream doesn't cost much.

From the pretty wooden bridge you have a great view of the Heidkruger Bäke and the lush nature on the banks of the stream.

Super Tour

The former military bathing facility is a little eye-catcher when you cycle or hike along the Delme. Great crested grebes can be seen there from time to time. The small lake is also attractive in winter because it is surrounded by trees (without leaves in winter, but still beautiful).

To protect the town of Delmenhorst from flooding by the Delme, as was the case most recently in October 1998, a flood retention basin was built near Schlutter (municipality of Ganderkesee) over an area of 125 hectares. This offers storage space for 1.8 million cubic meters of water. The project, which cost around 20 million euros and was started in 2004, was completed in spring 2014. 70 percent of the costs were borne by the state of Lower Saxony and 30 percent by Delmenhorst. The flood retention basin is maintained and operated by the Ochtum Association. It is also known as “Germany’s northernmost dam”.

The museum is open on Mill Day in summer and there is a nice accompanying program.

Great museum in the mill, worth a visit.

The former military bathing establishment is now a gathering point for water birds. Today there were lots of Mallards, Gadwalls, Blessh, some Cormorants, two Egyptian Geese and two Mergansers.
