May 15, 2024,NORDPFAD Dör't Moor🧶🌿 + NORDPFAD Rotenburger Wasserreich 🐟🌳

Today I combined the two NORTH PATHS "Dör`t Moor" and "Rotenburger Wasserreich" because both circular trails meet at the large Bullensee and even run together for a few kilometers. In the photo gallery I have marked both trails separately so that you always know which photo belongs to which trail.

Starting with "Rotenburger Wasserreich," it feels like the middle of it, then almost exactly 10km of "Dör't Moor." Despite some sections where it's flat, long, and straight, the two paths together make for a fantastic and very varied route. Heather, sunflowers, coffee and delicious cake at Hartmannshof, and great fellow hikers... a wonderful Saturday!

So! It's time to write my recommendation for this northern path "Rotenburger Wasserreich". As I decided to add the adjacent northern path "Dört'n Moor" while hiking, I can only say: it's worth taking on the almost 35 km long path. The nature is simply unique. Buen camino!
