Enjoy the beautiful views of the Ubbedisser Berg and the city center and treat yourself to a refreshing dip in the Hillegossen outdoor pool after the ride through the Teutoburg Forest!

(!) Feeder route from the district court (2x 5 km):

The feeder route from the city center to the east of Bielefeld is flat and ideal for rolling in. The paths in Stieghorster Park follow the course of the Baderbach stream and its tributaries - often within sight of the tram line 3.

The circular route:

On St. Nicholas Day in 1894, the first lessons took place in the old Frordissen school. There were 150 pupils in two classrooms.

Slightly off the route, on Detmolder Straße, you will see the mighty 2 1/2 meter high Landesgrenzstein, which once marked the border between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Principality of Lippe.

The path leads back to Gräfinghagener Straße above the Sussieksbach stream, where further border stones can be seen directly by the stream. This historic boundary was elaborately secured with 63 stones in 1784.

The route then continues in a wide arc around the Ubbedisser Berg. The nature reserve is at its most beautiful in midsummer. On the slopes of the Teutoburg Forest, calcareous grasslands have developed outside the wooded areas as a result of centuries of grazing, which are characterized by a high abundance of species and flowers. Butterflies such as the imperial cloak and swallowtail can be found here.

After a long and sometimes strenuous ride through the Teutoburg Forest, treat yourself to a dip in the Hillegossen outdoor pool! The small, cozy outdoor pool is located on the outskirts of Hillegossen and offers lots of fun for young and old alike, both in the water and on the lawns.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

In the district of Ubbedissen, the signposted, 20-kilometre-long "Lämmerweg" crosses your path. If you walk a few hundred meters on the path to the northeast (towards Naturfreundehaus Teutoburg), you will come to the Ubbedisser Berg nature reserve with its species-rich lime-beech forest and extensive grassland areas. Access to the hiking trail: near junction 77 at the house at Oerlinghauser Straße 137
