Riede

Geographically, the tranquil village lies between the rolling hills of the Wildeshauser Geest Nature Park and the Weser River. The landscape is criss-crossed by forests, lakes and rivers and invites you to take part in numerous outdoor activities - whether hiking, cycling or canoeing - everyone gets their money's worth here.

But Riede also has a lot to offer in terms of culture: The historic Etelsen Castle and the collegiate church of St. Andreas are absolute highlights for those interested in culture. Art lovers don't miss out either: exhibitions of contemporary art take place regularly in the Atelierhaus Alte Schmiede.

If you want to indulge in culinary delights, you should definitely make a detour to the farm shop "Hof Eggers": Here you can find regional products fresh from the farm! If you prefer a rustic meal, you will find hearty specialities such as kale with pinkel or labskaus in one of the cosy inns.

Even when the weather is bad, you don't have to do without entertainment in Riede: There is a bowling alley for sporting activities and you can swim a few laps in the indoor swimming pool.

It is particularly beautiful in Riede during the blossoming season in spring and summer, when the landscape is bathed in a colourful sea of blossoms. Autumn also has its charm: when the leaves change colour and the air becomes clearer, there are great views of the surrounding area.

Overall, Riede is definitely worth a visit - as a little jewel in northern Germany, it offers something for everyone! This Travel Guide gives you all the important information about your next holiday destination.
