Start your exploration with a visit to Spenge Castle, which dates back to the 16th century and is now used as a museum. Here you can learn more about the history of the region and admire an impressive collection of artworks.

Another highlight is the Martini Church in Herford, a Gothic masterpiece from the 13th century with fascinating architecture and beautiful windows.

For cultural highlights, we recommend a visit to the MARTa Herford museum or the Imperial Palace theatre, where you can look forward to exciting exhibitions, concerts or theatre performances.

When it comes to culinary delights, you should definitely try local specialities such as pumpernickel bread or sausage specialities.

Spenge also offers many outdoor activities - whether hiking along the river banks or cycling through the green countryside - there is always something to do here! In summer you can even enjoy canoeing on the Werre or go swimming!

And if the weather doesn't cooperate for once? Then why not visit the H2O leisure pool in Herford - a huge water park with slides and wave pool!

No matter what time of year, Spenge and Herford are always worth a visit. Discover the beauty of the region and experience unforgettable moments!

Insgesamt betrachtet, eine nette Strecke. Teilabschnitte verlaufen entlang von Straßen. Ein Abstecher zur Eisdiele in Spenge ist trotz hoher Preise empfehlenswert. Günstig ist in Bünde das Restaurant "Jasmin Garden". Es liegt nahe der Route und ist für die Mittagseinkehr zu empfehlen.

Wunderschöne Runde rund um Riemsloh und Bruchmühlen. Kommt man auch mal in Ecken die man sonst eher nicht abfährt... Martmühle, Windmühle Westhoyel usw. Viele Bänke/Gelegenheiten um zu entspannen.

Rundum gelungener Weg. Sehr gut ausgeschildert. Alles dabei, Asphalt, Single Trails, Wald, weite Sichten und Wiesenwege. Viele schöne Höfe auf dem Weg. Nur der Ponyhof hat schon seit Jahren kein Café mehr. Dies sollte hier in der Beschreibung angepasst/entfernt werden.

Wir sind den Weg am 27.5.2021 gegangen und waren vollkommen begeistert. Er ist super abwechslungsreich, führt durch Wiesen und Wälder und wir haben sehr viele Kühe und Pferde auf den Wiesen gesehen. Wir wollen den Weg unbedingt noch einmal gehen.

Eine sehr schöne Strecke mit abwechslungsreicher Natur. Aber bitte nicht nach Starkregen oder Tauwetter laufen, dann wird es anstrengend, da man genau aufpassen muss, wo man hintritt.

Wir sind die Runde schon mehrmals gelaufen, weil sie so bannig schön und abwechslungsreich ist. Festes Schuh ist zu empfehlen, von weißen Turnschuhen ist abzuraten.

Die Strecke ist ansich sehr schön, abwechslungsreich mit Wiesen, etwas Wald und immer mal zwischen Höfen durch. Wir habe die Strecke Ende Januar gemacht und heute war sie wirklich mehr als matschig und schlammig. Von eigentlich „unpassierbar“ bis „Augen zu und durch“.

Sehr schöne, abwechslungsreiche Tour. War leider Ende Dezember sehr matschig und schlammig. Lässt sich aber trotzdem gut gehen.
