July 4, 2021,Römer-Lippe-Route (Etappe 1: von Detmold nach Schloß Neuhaus)

Strengthened after a good breakfast we went through Detmold and initially only a short distance on the Römer-Lippe-Route, as we first visited the open-air museum in Detmold. Worth seeing!
But then we really started cycling; up to the Externsteinen with many sections uphill and so steep that we had to push some parts. But then mostly only downhill - that's …

July 27, 2021,Auf dem Römer-Lippe-Radweg von Detmold nach Paderborn

Since I can travel all over North Rhine-Westphalia with my bear ticket during the summer holidays, I thought I could take the chance and tackle the first stage of the Römer-Lippe-Radweg. The arrival and departure by train was no problem at all.
I've been to the Hermannsdenkmal several times, so I saved myself the first few kilometers down from there …

June 7, 2022,Römer-Lippe-Route Tag 1 Detmold-Sande

Stage 1 of 4 for the tour from Detmold to Xanten - the Roman route somehow smiled at me and that's how it started today - the first tour with 50 km manageable, scenic for the most part very nice. I've gotten used to the fact that the official cycle paths are completely closed in sections due to construction work …

March 31, 2023,Etappe 1: Vom Bahnhof Detmold über Hermannsdenkmal nach Paderborn – Römer-Lippe-Route

Today we started with the first stage of the Römer-Lippe-Tour.
The sun 🌞 shone during the breaks 🙈. Otherwise the weather was rather modest. But it didn't break the good mood on the way ☝️🥳.

Great bike tour from the DJH in Detmold via the Herman to Paderborn Elsen. Could even see the effects. See the tornado in Paderborn. That must have been intense. We recommend the Elsener Büger- and Brauhaus.
