Pretty stone bridge that spans the Nethe at this point. Super idyllic in the middle of the countryside.

Höxter Station and St. Kilian's Church

Highlight • Historical Site

Actually not a train station, but "only" a halt with one track. But nicely built. Mostly hourly connections to Holzminden and Paderborn, every 2 hours to Kreiensen

Weser River in Höxter

Highlight • River

A beautiful part of the Weser Cycle Route. Especially in the area of the State Garden Show 23.
And a visit to the Höxter pedestrian zone is always recommended.

A striking structure that crosses the Nethe. There used to be a railway viaduct here, which collapsed during a flood in 1909.

Beautiful round trip through the small villages of Brakel via Bellersen, Vörden and Ovenhausen to Höxter...great cycle path but terrible, debilitating wind. From Höxter then back via Hembsen and Erkeln...was fun

Holiday, summer, let's go..... 😊

I would have actually liked to have driven further, but my cell phone battery and drink weren't enough 😅
