Beautiful circular tour on the north side of the Wiehengebirge. The R10 circular cycle route can be individually combined with the other circular cycle routes for an all-day excursion!

Discover the southern border of the North German Plain from Preußisch Oldendorf. Even the Romans had to laboriously find their way between the foot of the Wiehengebirge and the moors of the plain. Today we have it easier, and a lot more comfortable on a bike!

You cross the Mittelland Canal twice for a detour into the mill and moorland landscape of the Oldendorf hinterland. The route returns via Hüffe Castle with its magnificent grounds.
