Klein Helgoland in Bremervörde is an idyllic, historically characterized area on the Oberoste, near the city center and the harbor. It is above all a popular meeting point. Starting point for canoe tours and a scenically attractive resting place for cyclists and hikers. The historical origin, the name dates back to the time of mussel fishermen and peat cutters. The young people joked back then that they had almost sailed to Helgoland when they met at the landing stage after finishing work. The Oberoste is natural and unstraightened here. The area around Klein Helgoland serves as an idyllic entry point for canoes and rowing boats, as motorboats are not allowed upstream from the weir. This section is also very popular with anglers. It is precisely defined as the zone between the weir and the harbor. Corresponding fishing areas and access prohibitions are written down on the permit of the FSV Bremervörde. A visit is recommended and interesting 👍

A park with history is the Auepark Bremervörde. It is romantically situated between the former chancellery of Vörde Castle - today's Bachmann Museum - and the idyllic course of the Oste river and is a paradise for leisurely walks and bike tours. Hiking enthusiasts simply follow the onward route of the NORDPFAD Vörder See-Osteland and experience diverse nature and cultural experiences over a total of around 20 kilometers. Both guests and residents of Bremervörde appreciate the Auepark as a quiet oasis close to the city center with walking paths, the Auesee lakes, and ample seating. The "Path of the Talking Trees" extends throughout the entire park area, introducing over 200 trees and shrubs from all over the world. Today, the Auepark is also used for historical and ecological projects. A visit is absolutely recommended and interesting at the same time 👍🏼.
