Narrow paths, impressive forest edges and romantic details make up the Niese Valley Trail between Marienmünster Abbey and the picturesque town of Schwalenberg. Hike around 25 km through the diverse cultural landscape in the north of the Höxter district.

The namesake Niesebach meanders from its source on the Köterberg to the Emmer, into which it flows. At Kollerbeck, the stream is idyllically framed by two mountains. Further downstream, the landscape changes to a wide and hilly landscape.

The circular hiking trail, which is around 25 km long, is at least as varied. Mainly along narrow meadow paths and forest trails, the trail connects Marienmünster Abbey and the picturesque town of Schwalenberg. You will cross the Niese and its smaller and larger tributaries several times on the hike.
Pastures framed by hedges, small-scale farming and beautiful paths through changing forest scenery make this somewhat longer hike a tour for the soul.

There are quiet rest areas near Kollerbeck and Born for an extensive regional picnic.
