From Brevörde to the hinterland west of the WeserWith an average height of around 300 meters, the hilly, mostly open Ottenstein plateau significantly towers over the Weser valley and creates a completely different landscape character. In clear weather, you can see far in some sections. In between, however, we also discover secluded forest valleys such as the Glesse or the Bargrund and last but not least gain magnificent impressions of the Weser valley itself. This shows possibly its most beautiful loops between Pegestorf and Polle, with exemplary impact and slip slopes.

From Hehlen to the Ottensteiner PlateauAt the Bismarck Tower, we soon catch a top-down view of the picturesque town of Bodenwerder, before the further route partly leads very attractively past Heyen and again immediately nestles along the Weser River. The fortified water castle impresses at Hehlen. We eventually leave the village behind below us and head toward the Ottensteiner Plateau. After 70 percent of the route, we reach the Sievershagener Mill, before crossing the last forest ridge at Hagenberg. But change is also the theme today, because the scenery opens widely again at Lüntorf.

    Der, auf den Fotos zu sehende Streckenabschnitt, war nicht gut zu begehen, da ziemlich zugewuchert. Zwischenzeitlich dachte ich, dass ich nicht auf dem richtigen Weg sei, aber dem war nicht so....

    Leichtgängige Wanderung, meist durch Wald. Wir sind allerdings vom Wanderparkplatz an der freiwilligen Feuerwehr gestartet. Hier kann man problemlos parken.

    Schöner Weg über die Höhenzüge. Die Stücke im Wald waren teilweise so zugewuchert, dass man Alternativen suchen musste, da kein Weg mehr erkennbar war.
