The approximately 22 km long route connects the two towns of Höxter and Holzminden. The first highlight along the way is the World Heritage Site Corvey, which invites you to stop. Then it continues along the Weser to Holzminden past Tonenburg. After crossing the Weser at Stahle, the route follows closely along the Weser to Lüchtringen and then back to Höxter.
On the circular route from Höxter to Holzminden, you can enjoy the beautiful landscape of the Weserbergland. Your first stop should be at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Corvey; a visit to the former Imperial Abbey is always worthwhile. Let the entire complex and its unique architecture impress you. Afterwards, continue on the Weser Cycle Route below the Tonenburg towards Holzminden. The Tonenburg with its impressive defensive tower was a fortification of the Imperial Abbey of Corvey and today houses a hotel. In Stahle, you cross the Weser River and arrive directly in Holzminden. Take a break at the plane tree-lined market square of Holzminden and enjoy the “City of Scents.”
On the way back, cycle through Lüchtringen. Behind this small Weser town, you get a beautiful view of Corvey once again. Follow the Weser Cycle Route back to the starting point in Höxter.
Author’s recommendation
The UNESCO World Heritage Site Corvey is located in the Weser bend near Höxter directly on this route. A visit is a special experience and highly recommended!
