Where the water hides.

Meter-wide funnels open up in the ground, watercourses disappear into the ground and reappear elsewhere... these and other unusual phenomena are typical of karst landscapes such as the Paderborn Plateau.

The geological hike of the Sälzer town of Salzkotten familiarizes you with these geological peculiarities and leads over 12 km through not too steep, wooded terrain.

After the hike, a refreshment stop in the historic center of Salzkotten provides refreshment. The reconstructed graduation house is a reminder of the once formative salt production.
A visit to the Wewelsburg district museum is also a good option near the hike.

Author´s Tip / Recommendation of the author

Wear weatherproof hiking boots, as the trail runs partly over grassy areas!
