The Lyrikweg is an adventure hiking trail. It connects the two locations of Hülshoff Castle and Haus Rüschhaus. Its theme is the transformation of literature, nature and culture. At a total of 20 stations, the texts by Annette von Droste-Hülshoff (1797-1848) provide insights into life with her family, the themes that were important to them and their significance for us today.
The cycle tour starts at Haus Rüschhaus and ends at Hülshoff Castle. You will explore the stations of the Poetry Trail with our guides. The tour takes around 2.5 hours and is 7 kilometres long.
In the Lyrikweg app, you can also discover historical images, texts and audio from contemporary artists as well as a collection game. The app is free of charge and available in all popular shops. It is best to download the app to a mobile device before the tour. If you have a good Wi-Fi connection, you can download all the media content in just a few minutes after opening the app.
