Ostwestfalen

I've been looking forward to that for a long time: Again a little tour in my old homeland. For the first time in a long time, we went back to East Westphalia today to visit my parents and my mother-in-law.



For me, the drive ended at Werrepark in Bad Oeynhausen, a shopping and specialist market center… Leer más

A few weeks ago I hiked along the Werre from Bad Oeynhausen to Löhne. On this occasion, we discussed with the family afterwards whether one could continue walking to Herford at the Werre. There is no continuous path here. I still wanted to know and planned a tour from Herford to Löhne as close to the… Leer más

I've been looking forward to this for a long time: a trip to my former home in East Westphalia and another hike there.

I walked the very last part of the journey today. From the Herford-Ost exit of the A2 we went "via the transmitter" to Löhne, visiting the relatives.



Via the Herford transmitter on the… Leer más

So today is the contrast program. Not leisurely along the river, but once over the mountain and back again.



The Wiehengebirge is one of the most northerly low mountain ranges. I always say: Behind the Wiehengebirge (seen from Löhne) it is flat to the North Sea. But that's not entirely true. There are… Leer más

On August 23, the day before yesterday, the state of North Rhine-Westphalia turned 75. On this occasion, there was a special supplement on this topic last weekend in the Bonner Generalanzeiger and probably also in other daily newspapers in North Rhine-Westphalia. A very interesting article, I find, deals… Leer más

First an asphalt path with great views and then rustic paths along the stream. Maybe that's how you can summarize today's round.



I once again went on a journey of discovery in East Westphalia. When I think about it, I didn't even know this corner of my former home town of Löhne, only the main streets… Leer más

News from the series "I'm getting to know my old home anew". I don't think I've ever looked at Ulenburg Castle as closely as I did today.



The moated castle dates from the 16th century. Until 2008, a care facility for mentally handicapped people was housed there for many decades. Since 2014 the castle… Leer más

Thank you, Bettina! Uta and mother-in-law were traveling in our car. Anorak with a hood and ☂️ were also in the car. So I went with a winter jacket without a hood and without ☂️. Luckily, the spray stopped quickly.



Tomorrow my mother celebrates her 80th birthday, hence the trip to East Westphalia.

Return from the dinner in the restaurant

En el camino de nuevo en el este de Westfalia. Grandes vistas y realmente grandes caminos y caminos estaban allí.



En el medio esperé un chubasco bajo el paraguas y los arbustos. Como no hubo suficiente tiempo, la ronda fue un poco más corta de lo planeado.



Pero aun así fue una ronda maravillosa y variada.🌤🌧👍

El viaje a mis parientes en East Westphalia terminó prematuramente para mí hoy. Me bajé del coche en Bünde y caminé el resto del camino, en su mayor parte a lo largo del Else.



No conocía la mayor parte del camino a lo largo del Else. El Else desemboca en el Werre cerca de los límites de la ciudad de Kirchlengern… Leer más
