Particularly impressive here is the **Scheeßeler Holz**, with its dense mixed and coniferous forest. The trail continues through the Veerse Valley and across the Lünzener Bruchbach. Behind the **Westervesede Sports Field** , we cross the **Veerse** and hike to the **Veerse Rest Area**. With a shelter, benches, and a table, this offers an ideal place to rest before we cross the K 211 and leave the Veerse Valley. For the next 3.6 km, the NORDPFAD follows a wide paved road that was originally built as an access road to a former ammunition depot. This stretch of the trail, with little traffic, leads through the Lohmoor, which captivates visitors with its diverse landscape. A particular highlight is the stunning **Großes Lohmoor aquatic biotope**, which captivates visitors with its diverse landscape, and the near-natural standing water body known as the Lohmoor. An unassuming signpost points the way to the observation point. The trail winds through the expansive Lohmoor, passing the **Hemslinger Moor Nature Reserve**. This raised bog is currently undergoing renaturation. A rest area invites you to linger. We then approach the birch and pine forest of the **Bösenkamper Moor**. Here, the grasses and mosses typical of moors are gradually returning. The trail continues on soft ground through the tranquil forest landscape. A 1.9-km-long detour leads from there to **Brockel,** before we pass the Bartelsdorf Wind Farm and reach another fork in the trail. Via another detour, which is signposted a little further on, you can reach the (Starting point 2 of this hike) or to the village of **Wensebrock**, which is a bit further away at 1.9 km (with a small campground). From this junction, the trail continues through forests, meadows, and farmland, past the Bartelsdorf Cemetery, and on to the village of **Bartelsdorf.** The old farms here are wonderful, as is the with its lovely rest area (though in winter, this is dismantled to make it "winter-proof"). We leave Bartelsdorf, cross the Bartelsdorf Canal, return to the meadow-rich Veerse Valley, and reach the .This oak-plank bridge runs through the floodplain of the Veerse River. It is the longest wooden bridge in the NORDPFADE region; it was once the most important connection between Bartelsdorf and Scheeßel. In the summer, the area dries up, and during floods, it transforms into a large lake.   The final leg leads back to the **Scheeßel train station.** But first, you’ll pass by the **Bassen Farm** , where a window offers a glimpse into a sow barn. In the adjacent or at the , a dairy stop open from May through October, you can refuel with coffee, ice cream, cake, and milkshakes. A great spot for a final rest stop.
