The VitalWanderWelt - strengthen your heart and circulation

Bad Driburg's history as a private, family-run spa began over 225 years ago. Since then, famous guests have found their way to the traditional mud and mineral spa. In the 18th and 19th centuries in particular, Bad Driburg was a spa and vacation resort for personalities who played an important role in German literary history.
The spa doctor Friedrich Wilhelm Weber, the poet Friedrich Hölderlin and the writer Annette von Droste-Hülshoff are the godparents of the VitalWanderWelt trails. The trails around the spa follow in the footsteps of these historical figures. Information boards guide you through movement and relaxation exercises that are particularly suitable for training the heart and circulation.
