Hasetal Circular Walk

From the walkers’ car park, turn right towards Schwarze Welle (Almaquelle) and continue along the River Hase towards Kronensee. At the emergency point (Rechenbergstraße), turn left towards Blauer See. Once you reach the lake, follow the signs for route A7 at the junction. At the Adler, leave the woodland by turning left and walk past the horse pastures back towards the starting point.

The local hill of the “Wellingers”, as the villagers usually call themselves, is the Beutling, at the foot of which there is also a car park for walkers. For centuries, the Beutling served the people of Wellingholzhausen as communal land, which was managed as coppice woodland. As a result, along the way – particularly near the summit – you’ll come across impressive beech trees that were coppiced for timber, then allowed to grow wild again and are now overgrown.

In Preußisch Oldendorf, the Wiehen Mountains are home to a number of circular walking routes. These routes lead through a landscape of gentle hills and offer sweeping panoramic views. Historic sites and nature reserves are accessible along the carefully signposted paths. The area offers a variety of options for walks and extended excursions, allowing visitors to experience the distinctive character of the Wiehen Mountains.
