Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

The Rübenroute invites you to choose the regional and seasonal produce on offer at the weekly market for your home cooking. You can buy healthy and varied produce directly from the producer at the weekly market in Bad Salzuflen and Schötmar.
After an eventful cycle tour, relax in the VitaSol Therme spa with alternately warm baths and in the extensive SaunaPark.
