This unsignposted nature tour around Rödinghausen is a perfect circular route for all nature lovers.

Start and finish of the route is at the Bürger Solaranlage (sports hall of the Rödinghausen comprehensive school, An der Stertwelle 34-38).

The nature tour through Rödinghausen starts at the Bürger-Solaranlage and leads past valleys and streams to the old fruit tree avenue on Waghoster Straße. With a bit of luck, you can fortify yourself with fresh fruit and continue to the beautiful old pollarded willows along the Grenzbach stream. Wind turbines at Hagsbrink point the way to the largest orchard far and wide. After a brief glimpse into the Habighorst meadow valley, the route leads partly on grass paths past farmsteads with old oak trees, historic mill sites and beautiful views as far as the Wiehengebirge mountains. Quarries, spruce forests and coppice woodland accompany you on this somewhat strenuous section. The route descends past the old knacker's yard and under the railroad. Shortly before the end of the route, the trail crosses the "Große Aue" stream, which makes its way north through the Wiehengebirge mountains.

Further information on the route and the waypoints can be found on the Herford district cycling leisure website: www.fahr-im-kreis.de. An audioguide and a brochure are also available for download there.
