This is (perhaps) the main town in Dümmer. Accordingly, it can be a bit crowded here.

In the middle of the beautiful landscape along the sculpture trail are the impressive Fibonacci Cubes by artist Petra Paffenholz. If you don't know the background, you'll inevitably wonder what their meaning is. An information panel next to the artwork will give you the answer. The Fibonacci Cubes are the artist's take on the theme of infinity. The nine permeable cubes of different sizes stand in the expansive agricultural landscape. The dimensions of the cubes are derived from the Fibonacci series. The Fibonacci sequence is the infinite sequence of natural numbers that begins with two times the number 1, and in which each subsequent number is the sum of the two preceding numbers. In modern notation, this sequence is additionally given a leading number 0: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55... The numbers contained therein are called Fibonacci numbers. The sequence is named after Leonardo Fibonacci, who used it to describe the growth of a rabbit population as early as 1202. However, the sequence was already known in ancient times to both the Greeks and the Indians. Further research has shown that the Fibonacci sequence also describes numerous other growth processes in nature. It seems as if it is a kind of growth pattern in nature. Highly interesting and initially easy to follow, but increasingly difficult to understand the deeper you delve into this subject and the associated mathematical formulas. This is "higher mathematics" that you have to like and understand. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci-Folge https://www.stadt-diepholz.de/info/poi/fibonacci-cubes-903000152-21770.html

Lake Dümmer, the "little sea," is the second largest and one of the most popular lakes in Lower Saxony. Its 12.5 km² of water surface is nestled between the Damme Hills and the Stemwede Hills. Located in the heart of the Dümmer Nature Park and as part of the Diepholz Moorland and the DümmerWeserLand region, it invites you on an exciting journey of discovery. On the eastern shore of Lake Dümmer lie the main holiday resorts of Hüde and Lembruch, captivating visitors with their maritime charm and offering a wealth of attractions. Lake Dümmer and its lowlands originated from the post-glacial developments of the landscape. Water and wind carved out the basin between the Stemwede Hills and the terminal moraine of the Damme Hills, which today define the landscape as ridges. After the last Ice Age, around 10,000 years ago, the deeper layers of soil also thawed. In areas with abundant ice and little sand, the ground subsided and filled with water. This is likely how Lake Dümmer was formed. Back then, Lake Dümmer was almost ten times larger than it is now. A large part of the lake has silted up and been gradually cultivated as peatland. Until the middle of the last century, it regularly overflowed its banks over large areas before being diked. https://duemmer.de/duemmer-see/

As Huntebruch Und Huntebruchwiesen is a nature reserve and an EU bird sanctuary, specific rules regarding dogs may apply to protect wildlife. While many trails are generally dog-friendly, it's always best to keep dogs on a leash, especially in sensitive wetland areas, to ensure the safety of both your pet and the local fauna.

The varied landscapes, from dense forests to open grasslands, offer a dynamic hiking experience throughout the year.
