Circular route in the Egge foreland with magnificent views
The cycle route leads along quiet and easy-to-navigate field and meadow paths through the varied landscape, offering charming views of the Paderborn highlands and spoiling you with panoramic views as far as the mountain ranges of the Sauerland.

The term "soratfeld" comes from the Middle High German word "sor" = "barren" "dry" or "poor". The agricultural use of the Soratfeld mainly consists of growing grain. However, the barren plateau has now become fertile land for energy production. One of the largest inland wind farms in Europe characterizes the landscape north of Lichtenau. Around the Soratfeld, in contrast to the barren plateau, there is a charming valley landscape with a diverse flora and fauna.
