Stuckenpfad Trail

Highlight • Trail

The Stuckenpfad trail near Herford is a family-friendly circular hiking trail that leads through the Stuckenberg nature reserve in the east of the city. This approximately 74-hectare woodland area lies on the hills between Herford and Vlotho and is characterized by its diverse deciduous and mixed forests with ancient trees, deadwood areas, and a rich variety of wildlife. Among other species, rare bats such as the greater mouse-eared bat and Bechstein's bat live here, highlighting the ecological value of the area.

The roughly eight-kilometer-long Stuckenpfad trail was developed in cooperation with schools and is particularly well-suited for families with children. Along the way, numerous information panels, small activities, and color-coded trail markers make the walk a playful nature experience. The route follows well-maintained forest paths and has only gentle inclines, making it easily accessible even for inexperienced hikers.
