Steep with a twist Admittedly, this Ebersnacken Tower wants to be conquered. In other words, good basic physical condition and sturdy footwear are required on this hike, which often takes place in steep terrain. Both wider gravel paths and narrow natural trails lead you up to the ridge and finally to the highest summit of the Vogler at 460 m above sea level, the Ebersnacken. The Ebersnacken Tower itself measures 26 m in height, whose ascent promises another small adventure. The view from the very top is fabulous and extends on clear days as far as the Brocken in the Harz or the Hermannsdenkmal in the Teutoburg Forest. And on breezy days, you feel how the wooden tower gently sways with the wind above the treetops of the wild Vogler.

The hike starts in Eschershausen and ends in Bodenwerder. It leads over gravel, grass, and narrow paths that are also suitable for dogs. Highlights include the Ebersnackenturm with panoramic views and the Bodoturm with a view of the Weserbergland. At the Königszinne, you can enjoy a nice viewpoint. In Bodenwerder, you can stop for refreshments after the route. Sturdy footwear is recommended, and there are no resting facilities. The return journey should be well planned, as bus connections are unreliable; it is advisable to leave a car in both places or take a taxi.

An initially strenuous route with the ascent over Flintenburg leads to the ridge of the Vogler. The subsequent Weserbergland trail involves moderate ups and downs. The last third from the Ebersnacken back to Rühle is winding but quite easy.

About the Vogler with its three observation towersAs a cultural highlight of this stage, the Cistercian monastery Amelungsborn, founded in 1135, can be considered, which we reach within about an hour's walk from Stadtoldendorf. A little further on, at Holenberg, we enter the Vogler to cross this distinctive ridge of the Weser Uplands lengthwise. From three panoramic towers, a magnificent long-distance view can be enjoyed: first we reach the wooden Ebersnacken Tower, later the steel Bodoturm and shortly before the destination the stone Königszinne, where the view down to the Münchhausen town of Bodenwerder is particularly fascinating. Karl Friedrich Hieronymus von Münchhausen went down in history as the "Baron of Lies" because of his adventurous tales.

Scenic hike in the southern part of the VoglerIn a ranking of the most beautifully situated Weser villages, Rühle would surely hold one of the top spots. The interplay of the river bend and the striking relief at the foothills of the Vogler unfolds a strong expressiveness, especially when viewed from the vineyard. With this fabulous viewpoint at the Herzog-Wilhelm monument and the wonderful paths in its area, our extensive tour through the Rühler Schweiz is to begin. The name is no coincidence, as the landscape between Rühle, Golmbach, Holenberg, and Reileifzen exudes a very special charm in the interplay between wooded hills and open meadows. During the tour, we also visit the Holenberg vineyard, where the Amelungsborn monks once also attempted viticulture – rather unsuccessfully – complete the traverse at the Großer Schweineberg and the finale at Hang- and Spielberg, thus closing the circle towards Rühle from a changed perspective. It is said that the most beautiful time in the Rühler Schweiz is around late April when the cherry trees and sloe bushes are in bloom. Then the popular Cherry Blossom Festival also takes place in Golmbach and Reileifzen.
