Detmold

Detmold is nestled between gentle hills, forests, and fields – a paradise for convertible drivers who love open-air driving. A particularly beautiful convertible route leads from the city center over Heiligenkirchen up to the Hermannsdenkmal, the landmark of the region. The route offers numerous curves, wide views over the Lippe region, and an incomparable driving feeling. From there, you can continue over Berlebeck towards Externsteine – a spectacular natural monument that is a must on any convertible tour near Detmold.

Another recommended convertible route takes you over Horn-Bad Meinberg and further towards Schieder-Schwalenberg. Here, a particularly charming combination of historic half-timbered towns and quiet country roads awaits you. This route is ideal for those who want to enjoy driving amidst green hills and like to make stops at a lake or viewpoint along the way. A convertible trip through the entire Lippe region can also be wonderfully planned – the roads are well-developed, varied, and offer many opportunities for spontaneous detours.

Here you can dive into the history of Westphalia and enjoy a cozy meal in one of the historic inns after a walk.

Another landmark is the Hermannsdenkmal – one of Germany's most famous monuments. From here, you not only have an impressive view over the Teutoburg Forest but can also perfectly plan your next convertible tour.
