The nation's capital city, Berlin, lies approximately 300 kilometres to the east of Minden.

You won't need to be stuck on the highway all day to experience some nature. Just 30 kilometres out of Minden, Hohes Moor Park is a favourite spot to kick back and relax. More peaceful surrounds are waiting for you at Huecker Moor, 30 kilometres away.

Embrace the culture of this region at the Minden Museum

Do you have an interest in the area's religious side? Pay your respects at Minden Cathedral.

If you can't imagine a getaway that doesn't involve some live sports, check what events are on at Schuco Arena. It's likely something will be happening while you're in town. You can find the venue 40 kilometres away in Bielefeld.

Venture outwards and find out what's happening in Porta Westfalica, 9 kilometres to the southeast. Plenty of visitors come here for the Kaiser Wilhelm Monument and Potts Park. Alternatively, Bad Oeynhausen is 11 kilometres to the southwest of Minden. Swing by this place for convenient access to Kurpark and Aqua Magica.

Sitting 25 kilometres to the south, Bad Salzuflen is a place chock-full with activities. The Hortus Vitalis, the Messezentrum Bad Salzuflen and Kurpark are close by. That said, the Bad Salzuflen Exhibition Centre and the Messe Bad Salzuflen are also worthy.

Whether you prefer the stylishness of Michelin stars or devouring a snack from a street stall, tasting the local food and drink is perhaps the best thing about travel. So why not tempt your taste buds by trying some of the region's decadent offerings?

A staple ingredient in the food here is beans. Another is potatoes. They're worth getting a taste for if you're not already a fan.

There's always a local recipe or two you need to try, and when you're in Minden, grünkohl und kohlwurst (sausage and kale) is one of them. Rheinischer sauerbraten (marinated roast with vegetables) is another typical dish that's sure to make an impression.

Butterkuchen (butter cake) is a dessert that sums up this place in just one bite. Put in an order for a serving and then get another to go!

If you're feeling rather thirsty and would like to indulge in a glass of amber nectar, we suggest Schumacher Alt. Look out for happy hour, make some new pals and drink up!

Neat, mixed or in a fancy cocktail — it doesn't matter! A shot of Steinhäger Gin ought to add some fire to your night out! You should find it most places here, and it's certainly worth a try.

Don't let the language barrier put you off! Make your trip to Teutoburger Wald a more satisfying one by putting in the effort to learn some phrases in the local tongue. You'll be glad you learnt 'Wieviel kostet das?', which means 'how much is this?'. 'Viel Glück!' ('good luck') is another one you might need.

Planning to be here on the 3rd of October? You're in luck. On this date, the entire nation bands together to celebrate Unity Day.

With just a little bit of your holiday allowance remaining in your pocket and some incredible memories that will last a lifetime, say a final "Tschüss" to Minden.
