The region is particularly well known for its numerous cycling and hiking trails as well as for the popular Weser Cycle Path.

The Petershagen Castle with its impressive baroque garden and the Old Synagogue Museum, which commemorates the Jewish history of the region, provide cultural highlights. The Möllenbeck Monastery also invites you to visit - here you can not only admire historic buildings but also sample regional products such as beer or liqueur.

The regular events in Petershagen are also a special highlight: In summer, the traditional straw puppet festival attracts thousands of visitors, while in winter the romantic Christmas market on the market square invites you to linger.

Culinary Petershagen also has a lot to offer - hearty dishes such as kale with pinkel or labskaus are particularly popular here. Those with a sweet tooth should definitely try the famous "Petershagener Windbeutel" (Petershagen cream puffs)!

But this region also offers plenty of outdoor activities: in summer you can go canoeing or swimming, while in winter the nearby ski resorts invite you to enjoy winter sports.

And what to do if it rains? How about a visit to the Wesertherme - a modern thermal bath with sauna landscape and wellness offers. Or visit the Petershagen cultural centre, which regularly hosts exhibitions and concerts.

Total: Petershagen is definitely worth a visit! Whether you are a nature lover, a culture lover or an active holidaymaker - everyone gets their money's worth here. With this travel guide you now have all the important information for a successful stay in Petershagen at hand.
