Deister Coal Trail in the Schleifbach and Stockbach Valleys

Highlight • Trail

The Deister Coal Paths take you to the highlights of mining in a picturesque setting - above ground. But other striking and interesting locations are not neglected either. The monastery, the Deister open-air theater with cannon wall, the stone carving and the toboggan run have many exciting stories to tell.

Wennigsen Waterwheels

Highlight • Structure

Really nice and lovingly designed. You can hear the clatter of the small blacksmith's hammers from far away. If you're travelling with children, it's definitely a must. :)

Annaturm and Annaturm Forest Inn

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Annaturm is great and you have a great view from the tower. The Annaturm is only open during certain opening hours. In the small restaurant there is good food and drink.

August 31, 2024,Wasserräder – Annaturm im Deister Runde von Egestorf (Deister)
The first time this far and with these climbs, after the long forced break, was a bit tough, but I managed it with a great group.

Similar tour as 3 days ago with beautiful weather and 14 like-minded friends and acquaintances. And me as a hiking guide. 😊

Today I basically did a biathlon. I cycled in the morning and went hiking in the afternoon. Hiking in the Deister for the second time in a row, with the family. This time to the Annaturm.

If you rest, you rust😊 A Sunday round at ☀️ ⛅ in the Deister.😎 Annaturm was so full, after a short break we continued straight away.🌞 At the water wheels it was like a children's playground 😄

Hi,

I'm Lokman and part of a great community called Start with a Friend (SwaF) in Hanover. Our mission is to facilitate friendships between people who have lived in Hanover for a long time and people with an immigration history. We create encounters on an equal footing and want to make our coexistence more colorful and diverse. We achieve this …

A round through the Deister in glorious weather, that's something. Especially when you are almost alone and can enjoy the sunshine in the Annaturm beer garden with food and drink.😊😎

Finally a "new" hiking route. The little one bravely held out, I wouldn't have been able to carry it anymore either :-)

Very nice and varied tour with life wisdom
