What was originally intended as a short "fun hike" between two cable car rides turned out to be a highly challenging undertaking (despite the short distance).
In detail:
I took the cable car up to the Hexentanzplatz, near which there are many beautiful viewpoints towards the Rosstrappe and the town center

Preliminary note:
Barbis train station has a free park-and-ride parking lot. Ideal for long-distance hikes from station to station.
This varied and easy hike largely follows the Karstweg trail from Barbis to Bad Sachsa train station.
There are no unpleasantly steep sections, making the hike suitable for

Not a hike in the true sense of the word.
The walk was primarily intended to get from point A to point B, as public transport in Minden is terrible.
The first part along the main street is unimportant, but from the Weser River onward, it became really nice. I highly recommend the subsequent boat tour

Given the lousy weather, I avoided the steep slopes today.
Instead, I took a long loop through the Bückeburg lowlands along beautiful avenues and meadows, past the train station to the castle, where I treated myself to a guided tour (entertaining and interesting).
Right at the beginning of the tour, I

The long hike took me from Meißen / Clus to the spa gardens in Bad Oeynhausen.
There were two difficult climbs (the Weser Mountains and the Wiehe Mountains at the monument). Everything else is easy to walk.
The sexton(?) opened the charming Laurentius Chapel for me.
The highlight of the tour is, of course

Once again, I went on a short walk through the neighborhood with friends and colleagues from Wuppertal.
From the hiking parking lot at Schützenplatz, we walked through the most beautiful historic streets (e.g., Hochstraße) and along Angerstraße to the Spiegelweiher pond. We made short detours to the Orangery

Bright sunshine at 15° - ideal to start the hiking season.
From Kettwig south of the Ruhr, we went along varied forest paths with occasional small climbs past Hösel into Ratingen's old town.
Landsberg Castle, the old Jewish cemetery, the Froschtümpel, the Stinkesberg and Haus zum Haus offer welcome variety

Keine ernstzunehmende Wanderung, sondern eher ein kleiner Spaziergang. Die geführte Tour ging schnurstracks ins wirklich hübsche Ausflugslokal am Campingplatz und wieder zurück. Am Wiesenbeker Teich, der übrigens Teil des UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe Harzer Wasserwirtschaft ist, war ich schon X mal - immer wieder schön.

Wieder einmal hat mir der P&R-Parkplatz in Bad Lauterberg-Barbis als Startpunkt gedient. Diesmal ging es Richtung Westen nach Herzberg. Mittellange und mittelschwere Wanderung. Alles Weitere steht im Kommentar.

Kurze, aber sehr knackige Wanderung vom Hexentanzplatz zur Rosstrappe mit vielen tollen Aussichten. Eine ausführliche Beschreibung gibt's im Kommentar.

Keine richtige Wanderung - nur ein kleiner geführter Spaziergang. Auf dem Hausberg wartet ein gepflegtes Ausflugslokal mit schöner Aussicht auf den Ort. Wer mag, kann auch die steilste Seilbahn Deutschlands benutzen, um rauf- und / oder runterzukommen.

Mittellange, aber einfache Wanderung. Sehr abwechslungsreich: Fluss, Wald, Wiesen und Dörfer - alles dabei. :-)

Schöne große Wanderung mit sehr unterschiedlichem Charakter zwischen Hin- und Rückweg. Und mittendrin eine Schlossführung als Bonus. Weitere Infos im Kommentar.

Anstrengende Wanderung mit einem extremen Anstieg am Kaiser-Wilhelm-Denkmal. Dafür aber sehr abwechslungsreich. Mehr dazu im Kommentar.

Schöne Streckenwanderung, die geschickt kaschiert, dass man sich eigentlich nicht der Natur, sondern in dicht besiedeltem Terrain befindet.

A beautiful moderately difficult hike.
The first half follows the Karstwanderweg (Karst Trail) and is characterized by constant ups and downs through the forest.
Scharzfeld Castle ruins and the Einstein Cave are potential sights to visit (check opening hours!).
The second half of the hike is a relaxing
