Waterfall at the Rhume Railway Bridge

Highlight • Waterfall

The Rhume is around 80 km long in total. It runs from the Rhumequelle, a large karst spring near Rhumspringe, to the mouth of the Leine.
The lively river has many curves and also has several interesting rapids between Katlenburg and the mouth of the Leine.
There is also a small waterfall at the railway bridge northwest of Northeim.

The beaver thinks it's great with us at the lake. 🦫🥰

April 14, 2024,Wanderung: Northeimer Seenplatte

Today we went on a little detour around the "Great Lake" in the Northeim Lake District.

Circular route around Lake Northeim, which begins unromantically under the motorway traffic, then follows a fine tourist route along the lake and then leads back less idyllically but with fascinating tar and gravel systems.

The sun is shining. So let's quickly soak up some vitamin D before the dreary weather returns next week. The large lake in Northeim is always a beautiful destination.
