The first 25 kilometers of the route lead through the Wesermarsch district along the foot of a dike to Oldenburg. It's recommended to take a break there. In Oldenburg, you have the option of crossing the river by crossing the highway bridge or taking the route through the historic old town, passing Blankenburg Monastery. Behind Oldenburg, a roughly 15-kilometer-long path begins along the Hunte dike towards Wardenburg, passing through the towns of Hundsmühlen and Tungeln. In Wardenburg, you pass a school and reach a bridge. After the bridge, go straight ahead, then right, and soon right again towards the dike. The dike leads to the next bridge, which you cross on Astruper Straße until you reach Sandkrug, where you move slightly away from the river. After the town, turn left onto the field paths again along the Hunte towards Wildeshausen.
