From Lemgo to Hameln, the E1 follows the Hansaweg. Through the Lippe hill country, the path leads me quite a bit up and down from North Rhine-Westphalia to Lower Saxony, mostly heading east.
Scenically, this stage is very appealing and varied. The path is very pleasant for hiking because the proportion of paved road is very low.

Landscape park, medieval ambiance and distant views over the LipperlandDörentrup, Hillentrup, Schwelentrup – such recurring name components, according to research, go back to an Old Saxon settlement in the earliest Middle Ages and mean something like "village." Here we want to complete a tour through the heart of the Lipper Bergland, which offers impressive facets. The focus is, of course, on the gracefully undulating landscape with its forest stretches and generously curved agricultural areas – best and farthest to be viewed from the Steinberg, which was formerly used militarily and today represents the highest elevation in Nordlippe due to an earth embankment. There are plenty of refined spots to admire at least a section of the panorama, both before and after. Culturally, the count's castle complex of Sternberg and its predecessor Alt Sternberg (about 1.5 kilometers away as the crow flies and still recognizable today as a mighty rampart complex in the forest) are of interest. And right at the beginning of the tour, we pass through the relaxing landscape park in Hillentrup with the so-called Pottkuhle. The stately lake is a relic of the former clay mining.
