The circular trail is around 31 km long and connects the city center with the districts of Häger, Theenhausen, Isingdorf, Rotingdorf and Rotenhagen in a varied way.

The Werther circular route covers the entire city area and connects the city center with the districts over a total distance of 31 km. The start is at the ZOB. Divided into three stages, the hiker experiences wonderful nature. The trail is fully marked along the entire route. The trail's marker shines brightly in the city colors "red" and "yellow" with the letters RW for Rundwanderweg Werther in der Natur.

In addition to flat and hilly sections, Werther shows its varied side here. Hikers on the Werther Egge in the direction of Theenhausen are treated to beautiful sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. Not forgetting the natural surroundings of Häger with its fish ponds and striking Siektälern valleys, the Ravensberg light landscapes and - to the south-west of Werther - the Arminius spring.

There is something for everyone here.
