“Feel good between forest and river” – this is the spirit of Rinteln and the Weser Uplands. Surrounded by old beech forests, rolling hills and the historic Weser Valley, the region offers a charm all its own. Hikers, cyclists, and nature lovers will find peaceful trails, sweeping views and a sense of true relaxation.

Set above the old town, the Ringhotel Der Waldkater welcomes you with 31 cosy country-style rooms. Enjoy regional specialties, seasonal menus and freshly prepared dishes in our elegant restaurant or rustic tavern. Afterwards, our sauna with forest views invites you to unwind and enjoy the calm.

Visit Schaumburg Castle, explore Rinteln’s charming old town or take a rail trolley tour through the Weser Valley. The Weser Cycle Path, Möllenbeck Monastery, the “Millennium View” lookout and the tranquil Aher Kämpe nature reserve offer countless opportunities for memorable experiences. Rinteln – where nature, flavour and warm hospitality come together in harmony.
