Developed as a training method for top athletes in the fields of cross-country skiing, biathlon and Nordic combined, this health-oriented, gentle sport is now popular with broad sections of the population.

In times of chronic lack of exercise as the number one risk factor, Gmünder ErsatzKasse GEK would like to make an active contribution to intensive preventative healthcare for all interested Herford citizens. This joint project between GEK, the Nordic Fitness Group, the Haus unter den Linden and the city was designed according to the latest quality and safety standards.

The Herford Nordic Walking Park offers users a unique nature and landscape experience and therefore ideal conditions for promoting health in a gentle way.

Safety guidelines

The Nordic Walking Park is characterized by a unique safety concept. In cooperation with Horst Scheiding and Heinz Beckmeier, who are responsible for the Nordic Fitness Group, the Herford fire department has developed signs that contain all the important information for making an emergency call. With the well-known telephone number 112 and the respective location designation, rescue and fire department vehicles can rush to the aid of the athlete in distress at any time.
