A beautiful part of the Weser Cycle Route. Especially in the area of the State Garden Show 23.

Beautiful round trip through the small villages of Brakel via Bellersen, Vörden and Ovenhausen to Höxter...great cycle path but terrible, debilitating wind. From Höxter then back via Hembsen and Erkeln...was fun

I would have actually liked to have driven further, but my cell phone battery and drink weren't enough 😅
