Experience the diverse landscapes of Lower Saxony on a 137 km route: through the Wesermarsch region and the city of Oldenburg, into the Wildeshauser Geest Nature Park, and on to the Dümmer Nature Park. The Hunte Cycle Route maps were developed specifically for this tour. The entire route is divided into four stages. Maps are available at tourist information offices.

From the Wesermarsch to Oldenburg Start in the seafaring town of Elsfleth at the Hunte barrage. Cycle first through the wide open landscape of the Wesermarsch before heading to the bicycle-friendly city of Oldenburg with its many historical buildings, rich cultural program, and a pedestrian zone known far beyond the region.

🚢 The Oldenburg Lock is a key transportation hub for shipping in the region and is located directly next to the Upper Hunte hydroelectric power plant. The lock is situated in an area of great importance for water management, as it also contains the weir for regulating the water level and the aforementioned hydroelectric power plant for energy generation.

🚴‍♀️The route is considered easy to moderately difficult and, due to its mostly flat terrain, is very well suited for families and leisure cyclists. You'll cycle through the wide, flat Wesermarsch region, the bike-friendly city of Oldenburg, and the rolling hills, forests, and heathlands of the Wildeshauser Geest Nature Park.

🚴‍♀️ 🚴‍♀️ Along the Hunte River, there is a very popular and well-signposted long-distance cycle route, the Hunte Cycle Path. This cycle path offers a varied route through diverse natural landscapes in Lower Saxony.

🚢 The confluence of the Hunte, Küstenkanal and Osternburger Kanal forms an important hydrological junction in Oldenburg, which is of central importance for shipping, water level regulation and nature conservation.

The Oldenburg bascule railway bridge crosses the Hunte, which is 60 meters wide. It is a listed building. The bridge serves the two railway lines Oldenburg – Bremen and Oldenburg – Osnabrück. It was built between 1946 and 1954 near the Oldenburg railway water tower as a replacement for the swing bridge from 1866, which was destroyed in 1945. It is for train traffic (double-track, with overhead lines since electrification in 1982) as well as pedestrians and cyclists.
