A walk around the graduation tower will help keep your airways clear. The trickling salty water is atomized and inhaled while walking.

January 12, 2025,Kuren in Bad Laer und Bad Rothenfelde
A day off work and no rain has been a rare combination in recent weeks. So we decided to rehabilitate ourselves from the "gray rainy weather blues" in two bathing resorts in Münsterland: Bad Laer and Bad Rothenfelde. The air was cold, clear and soothing. The round was great fun; it was wonderful to be out and about again. We …

After yesterday's heat and early morning rain, we had great weather for hiking through the Teutoburg Forest. The tranquil town of Bad Laer has a beautiful spa park with saltworks, Kneipp pools, a barefoot park, and a watermill, where we finished off our hike with a delicious beer. The paths through the Teutoburg Forest were very pleasant to walk, and …

Nice walk on the forest paths between the two baths.

Hike in Bad Laer in the late Sunday afternoon. The weather was very sunny, but much too warm for me. There were completely new ways (for me)! Beautifully developed paths - recommended. Fine 😃

Today, this circular hike takes us along easy paths through a very beautiful, gently hilly forest area, the Blomberg, between Bad Laer and Bad Rothenfelde. The name Blomberg comes from Low German and means "flower mountain." We can only confirm that this range of hills, located in front of the Teutoburg Forest, lives up to its name. Many beautiful early …

A little hike somewhere else.
Unfortunately, the sky didn't loosen up at all, so it wasn't worth climbing the tower either.
It is a very nice little wood, with nice forest trails that were unfortunately very muddy and had large puddles.
But the coffee stop in Bad Laer and the final baked potato in Bad Rothenfelde were also worth it.

Not very interesting, mainly forest with very little view of the surrounding landscape.

Bad Laer and Bad Rothenfelde are communities with brine springs in the Osnabrück region.

In 1777, a graduation tower with lateral struts was put into operation in Bad Rothenfelde to extract salt (Old Graduation Tower). In 1824, the second one without lateral struts followed (New Graduation Tower); with a length of 412 meters, it is the largest column-free graduation tower …
