Directions

The loop tour begins in the center of **Bremervörde** at **St. Liborius Church** and heads counterclockwise, first past the **Bachmann Museum** and through the small forest **Vorwerk, one of Bremervörde’s local recreation areas**. You’ll cross the small **Bever Stream** and follow the bike path alongside the county road toward **Minstedt**. Just before reaching the small village, **Tempelberg and the drinking water nature trail** offer a welcome opportunity for a short break before the tour continues from Minstedt to Plönjeshausen.

After passing through expansive meadows and fields, you’ll finally reach **Plönjeshausen**. At the end of this small village, you’ll find a lovingly maintained **idyllic heritage house complex**. Just beyond it, the route enters the impressive **Beverner Forest**. Enjoy the walk through the shady deciduous and mixed forest and listen to the sounds of nature, far from the usual background noise that surrounds us. Don’t be surprised if you hear the murmur of a stream. The forest is crisscrossed by numerous streams that flow toward Bever. The western and southern parts are also protected nature reserves and, thanks to the remaining old-growth and deadwood, offer an ideal habitat for wildlife and birds.

The final leg takes you through **Hesedorf**, past the **church and local history museum**, and along the **Horner Holz**, back to Bremervörde. Take a moment to admire the **recreational boat harbor** and the **Oste River** before you arrive back at the starting point. 
After the tour, Lake Vörder, the Nature and Adventure Park, the pedestrian zone, or the Delphino family pool offer a lovely way to round out your day.

The route passes through the following towns:

Bremervörde – Minstedt – Bevern – Plönjeshausen – Hesedorf – Bremervörde
