Path of Gazes Stage 2, Length 16 km

At the starting point, the village square of Bavenhausen, there is already a lot to discover with the bakehouse, which was built according to historical models and with traditional materials and techniques, an insect hotel, information boards, and seating. The tour first leads to Osterhagen, the smallest village in Kalletal. Here, the GPS trail Wichtelsteig can be explored. A few meters further on, you will find the Wichtel - here you not only have a beautiful view of the mountain village of Talle, but there is also the unique opportunity to see both the Hermannsdenkmal and the Porta Westfalica with the Kaiser Wilhelm Denkmal from one vantage point. Passing the idyllic mountain village of Talle, the route leads along the Bikberg and Bonstapel through the forest. Continuing over the Lichtensberg, you reach Bentorf, where the only operational windmill in Lippe is located. The final destination is the nearby estate of Hankenegge.
