- Start: "Am Lattenbusch" in the district of St. Vit

The circular tour from St. Vit to Rheda starts at a wonderfully preserved baroque church through small forests. The area is characterized by its rural structure. Individual farms, some of which have been farming for several centuries, are still preserved in their old form. The area here is mainly used for agriculture. Combined with small wooded areas, it is a wonderful hiking experience!

The circular trail starts in the small Rheda-Wiedenbrück parish of St. Vit, where you can first visit the beautiful baroque parish church before setting off on the trail.

The trail first takes you through the St. Viter Busch, then continues to the left via Wieksweg until you reach Geweckenhorster Straße on the left. You then cross a bridge over the A2 highway. From the bridge, you have a good view of the Stromberger Heights to the southwest. To the northeast, you will see the district of Rheda with the tower of the Protestant town church. To the right of the highway, you can see the Wiedenbrück district with the tower of the Aegidius church and, further to the right, the tower of the Marienkirche church. On a clear day, you can see the mountains of the Teutoburg Forest in the background. 

After crossing Oelder Straße, the path leads you further into Hambusch, a wooded area that once belonged to the princely Bentheim-Tecklenburg family and served as a local recreation area. There are some sensible, more natural shortcuts here if the path is too long for you. After passing through this section of forest and crossing the Oelder Straße again in a southerly direction, the trail leads you back to the starting point via the Radheide past the Neuhaus estate.

Have fun and: Have a good trip at all times!

Safety guidelines

PLEASE NOTE: On two short sections, the path leads along a district road without a hard shoulder to cross the highway. Please be careful here, walk behind each other and on the left-hand side of the road (towards oncoming traffic)!

The path is no longer continuously marked on site. In this respect, please carry a charged smartphone with you and use this Outdooractive map to find your way or print out the map sections in advance.

In Hambusch, short sections are somewhat damp after persistent rainfall, so weatherproof hiking boots are recommended.

Except for a bench, there are few places to sit along the way. However, there are many natural ones, such as tree trunks, which are ideal for a short break.
