September 28, 2021, Dümmer "Kranich-Tour"

The Dümmer "Kranich Tour" from the bike tour program of the Dümmer-Weser Land was changed a bit by me (at the end). The round trip starting in Lembruch now has 81 km instead of 74 km. At duemmer.de the original tour is available as a gpx file (with description) as well as all other 23 tours in different lengths! Here is the film about the tour !! https://youtu.be/WIzfwVMsHMA

Kranich-Tour Circular route oo Bicycle Expansive moorland landscapes and a visit to the zoo: this combination awaits you on the Kranich-Tour. You will also explore the municipality of Wagenfeld with its villages Wagenfeld and Ströhen. It is located in the middle of the idyllic Diepholzer Moorniederung, in the DümmerWeserLand and in the Dümmer Nature Park. Incidentally, the majority of today's municipality of Wagenfeld belonged to Hessen until the beginning of the 19th century. Wagenfeld was governed from the Auburg, located on the Aue river. The zoo in Ströhen is located about halfway along the Kranich-Tour - perfect for an extended break.
