From here, you start your tour heading east towards the Weser. On the other side of the Weser, you can pay a visit to the first mill - the Holzhausen mill. Before you cross the Weser mountains to the north, you will pass three more mills. The terrain becomes noticeably more mountainous on this section.
In the north of Porta Westfalica, you cycle along level roads and cycle paths again. A detour to the Dützen mill is worthwhile, as the mill park, which is looked after by an association, is beautifully prepared and inviting. Shortly before the end of the tour, you can include a final detour to the Hofwassermühle mill, which is located at the Bad Oeynhausen museum farm.
On this route, you can use the junctions as a guide in the following order: 54-51-52-40-41-42-43-38-37-36-35-33-29-49-28-64-63-56-55-54
