course

The Emmerweg begins at the source of the Emmer, which lies between Altenbeken and Langeland (district of Bad Driburg ), and runs in a north-easterly direction to its confluence with the Weser near Emmerthal , which is south-south-east or above Hameln .

The Emmerweg is ideal for a three-day tour, it follows the Altenbeken – Hameln railway line. The largely well signposted hiking trail is looked after by the Eggegebirgsverein . The routes between Altenbeken and Steinheim and later from Schieder along the Schiedersee ("Emmerstausee") are considered to be some of the most beautiful hiking and landscape sections .
