Leine River in Döhren

Highlight • River

With a little luck you can watch kingfishers from the bridge. Pay attention to a bright sharp "Thiiiet" and look up the blue-sparkling diamond splinters ...

Koldinger Lakes Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the wooden observation tower you have a great view of the Koldinger Seenlandschaft and its winged inhabitants.

The lakes are former gravel pits that have been intensively restored. Today, many migratory birds take a break at the lakes as they travel south.

View of the ponds with bench (Leineaue between Ruthe and Koldingen)

Highlight • Lake

The bench is right on the bike path for this section of the route. From there you have a beautiful view of the lake. The right place for a quiet, relaxed rest.

A really beautiful route in nature. Hardly any contact with cars. Only at the beginning and end. Partly gravel paths. A gravel bike or mountain bike is recommended.

October 29, 2021,☀️ Natur pur - Von Sarstedt über die Koldinger Seen nach Hannover zum neuen Rathaus/Maschsee & zurück

A wonderful route through nature south of Hanover!
The Koldinger Lakes are incredibly worth seeing, especially in autumn - & the many swans enjoy the last few days with the family 😊
The bike paths are flat and great to ride - absolutely recommendable!

On such a warm, but not yet hot, summer day, we'd been wanting to do this tour along and among the many ponds for a long time. Today was the day, and it was a delight.

From Hanover main station through the Leemasch with a short break at a fish factory. Next to the meadow roof house: Great weather - full house. From S-Bahn station Bismarckstrasse, return by train (not with the ICE). group ride.

Today we were finally on one of my favorite routes again and visited well-known highlights such as the mausoleum in Sundern, the Roman camp in Wilkenburg, the stork's nest in Ruthe and the Innerste estuary as well as the Koldinger lakes. Afterwards we stopped at the Shinebar 🍺🍷🍟
