Great bike path along the river. It is very narrow, but paved throughout.

I slept very well that night with no disturbances.
The way further along the Weser. Beautiful route awaited me today. I went swimming in the lake in Minden and watched the Bundeswehr practicing one of the mountains ????? I have no idea what they are called. The Weser continued, very nice bike route and finally a bit hilly, I think …

Very nice weather again.
Today the tour went along the Weser much more often.

Today the longest stage with 101 km (of which 18 km in the wrong direction!), from Rinteln via Porta Westfalica, Petershagen to Landesbergen. Mostly good bike paths but also some stretches on the country road.

I can recommend the Naturfreundehaus in Nienburg for an overnight stay.

Today is day 3. We slept in a little longer, and breakfast wasn't until 6:30 a.m. We set off at 7:30 a.m. We arrived in Nienburg today, dry.

Summary: This day didn't appeal to us at all. We didn't see much of the Weser River today. We could have done the cross-country trip in Friesland. We'll see what awaits us …

Hello, I'll start with yesterday. Unfortunately I forgot to record the tour. It went from Höxter to Rinteln. It was a great tour with many highlights. The route was almost 100 km long and wonderful to drive. I added some photos from yesterday. In Rinteln we had a very nice hotel to sleep in. The town really has something to …

The Weser Cycle Route runs from the Doktorsee campsite (Rinteln) via Minden to the Landesbergen trekking site. In mid-May, we were able to explore the beautiful landscape in perfect weather, observe ships on the Weser River, and observe storks in the meadows.
