Despite the boring stretch at the beginning and again at the end, the stamp loop is worthwhile thanks to the monastery. However, if I were to do it again, I wouldn't do the loop at the sewage treatment plant and would rather see how the route leads along the railway line into the city.

Hike in the Solling-Vogler region

From the parking lot we make our way out of Stadtoldendorf. The actual circular route begins at the memorial stone for a crashed British pilot. We finally reach the monastery via natural paths and paths with wide views of the Vogler, which is announced by an impressive monastery wall.

West of the town of Stadtoldendorf, on the Odfeld, lies the Amelungsborn Monastery, founded in 1135.

The Klostertour circular trail connects the town with the monastery via the Odfeld and through the wild and romantic Hooptal valley. On a fresh spring Sunday with plenty of 🌞, it was a wonderful afternoon stroll with nature and impressive history. 🤗

Climbing in the old quarries, looking for salamanders (unfortunately we didn't see any, but the conditions are perfect here), lingering at the mill pond or visiting the monastery make this tour very attractive.

Have a nice weekend …
