A holiday in the Teutoburg Forest goes hand in hand with absolute relaxation: numerous state-approved spas and health resorts as well as hikes through the low mountain range landscape ensure a healthy break. Visitors can feel the healing power of the moor in Bad Driburg's spa gardens and the Driburg Therme with its state-recognised thermal water ensures well-being and relaxation.
The healing power of brine is at work in Bad Salzuflen: graduation towers, which are located in the town and were once used to extract salt, now create a sea-like climate. Up to 300,000 litres of salt water trickle down the high blackthorn walls every day. In the spa gardens, accessible Experiences routes with level paths and wheelchair-accessible information boards with Braille complement the on-site experience.
Gigantic spikes: The Externsteine
The Externsteine near Horn-Bad Meinberg are particularly impressive and a natural highlight of the region. The sandstone giants tower towards the sky and have stood in the Teutoburg Forest since the Ice Age. Rare plants and animals such as the stag beetle live in the Externsteine area, which is now a nature reserve. The main rocks of the Externsteine are reflected in a large pond - a great photo opportunity.
