Neuhaus Castle

Highlight • Castle

Very beautiful castle with a wonderful castle park, invites you to linger! Very close to Paderborn city center, it is a destination for spontaneous excursions.

In the Almetal the railway line often had to be routed over bridges. One of these historic, old stone bridges still stands here at the “entrance” of the valley.

The highlight was the "mountain goats" near Nordborchen, searching for food in the rock face. Great trails along the Alme, some of which no longer had water. 😢 It was very busy at Wewelsburg Castle. We were lucky that there was a free table in the castle café.

Unfortunately, the mobile phone went out after Salzkotten. Probably drove a little further.

From Wewer we drove the beautiful Almeradweg to Wewelsburg 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♀️. The castle towers high above the valley. Past the Paderborn/Lippstadt airport and through wide fields we continued to Upsprunge. Here the cycle path leads through the pretty Hederauen and the NSG Sültsoid. After a coffee break ☕ in Salzkotten in the town hall café to Scharmede and through the NSG …

Once again a beautiful round through nature.
This time started in Wewer near Paderborn in the direction of Wewelsburg. Through a great area. Wasn't expected at all 👍🏼. At the castle 🏰 a little break.

Unfortunately we could not watch any take-offs and landings. Probably didn't feel like flying 😄🙃. …

The weather cooperated again today – it was colder and considerably windier than yesterday, but after a good meal at the Burgcafe in Wewelsburg and a good portion of 🍰 and ☕️ at the Genusswerkstatt (a local gourmet workshop), I still had enough energy. In between, I cheered on some participants of the Almetal Marathon. I'd like to point out, …
