Wow, what a NORTH PATH! The route starts remarkably at the starting point in Zeven at the Zeven city park. But it doesn't get boring on the 23 km long route either. You discover so much on this tour that hiking is just fun. Only the section on the K143 on the country road is a bit uneventful. But that …

This northern path was really beautiful again. The start was at S1 at the city park, near the monastery church of St. Viti. The route was varied, through meadows, fields, moors and forests, along streams and rivers - mostly in sunshine. The awakening of nature could be felt everywhere, and in the last week spring has already painted many places …

A very beautiful northern path!
These 23.5 km don't seem that long because this hike is very varied. Sometimes it goes along small streams or rivers, sometimes through forest, then again over fields that smell of cabbage. You also pass through one or two small villages.
The small bridge over the Bade is still closed but if you don't drive …

Finally, my new outdoor stove worked.

The Zevener Geest North Trail was a top choice for this. The rest stops were closed on Saturday and not directly along the trail.

But there were plenty of places to stop: benches, a playground, an Indian village, and a barbecue area.
