The Osterbergweg leads through Lügdes' picturesque landscape and provides insights into the surrounding nature. Bench back signs of fairy tales and legends enrich the hike.

The starting point of the hike is the historic St. Kilian's Church at the southern end of the city. From here the hike leads along the Eschenbach into the beautiful Meintetal. After a first break at the original sources of the Eschenbach - the "Seven Sources", the ascent of the Osterberg begins. After a little refreshment in the "Hotel Kempenhof" mountain restaurant, you will reach the Osterberg. A lounger and a refuge invite you to take another break and offer a wonderful view over the Lügder and Bad Pyrmont basins. This is also where the Osterbergkreuz is located with the point where the massive, burning oak wheels roll down into the valley every year on the evening of Easter Sunday. The descent back into the city begins from the Osterberg. In the park of the Emmerauenpark, the Ankerplatz café invites you to take another rest. The outside area offers an excellent view of the Osterberg. Then the hike leads back to the starting point.

Directions

The hike over the Osterberg starts at the Kilian's Church in Lügde. This impressive building from the 12th century invites you to visit (open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. from Easter to October). The hike starts at a leisurely pace and leads from the church over the Emmer bridge. Behind the bridge the path turns into the street "Unter den Klippen" and then to the left into the street "An der Ölwiese". One of the most beautiful sections of the hike begins here. The path runs along a natural path along the small Eschenbach, also known as "Meinte". At the end of the path, the path leads to the left over a small bridge. After a few meters the path reaches the "Siebenquellen". Here an information board provides information about the natural history of this place. The path bends twice to the right and leads back over the Blomberger Weg towards Meinte. The first ascent begins here. The hike leads through the Twielengrund to the high plateau of the Hamberg. The view of the Köterberg and the Schwalenberg Forest compensates for the strenuous ascent. After a short break, the path continues towards the golf course and then past the Berggasthof Kempenhof. Behind the Kempenhof, the path leads to the right and repeatedly opens up views of the Lügder and Bad Pyrmonter valleys. Following the path you will reach the Osterberg and the Osterbergkreuz. Every year the Easter wheels start here at the traditional Easter Wheel Run. A small refuge and a lounger invite you to enjoy the fantastic view of Lügder's old town. Following the course of the path, the Osterbergweg leads past the Lügder school center, which is named after the famous cartographer Johannes Gigas. The Rambergsweg leads over the Emmerbrücke towards the old town. One of the two preserved Lügder city towers and the Dechenmuseum welcomes you here. Through the Lügder Emmerauenpark, the last stage takes you along the Lügder city wall back to the starting point at the Kilian's Church.
