This circular route takes you through the wide, flat area west of Paderborn. It gives a good impression of the peaceful area between Delbrück, Salzkotten and Paderborn, which is characterized by meadows, fields and quarry ponds.
The "Paderborner Westschleife" is a 32 km long circular route, so you can start and finish at any point. We recommend riding the route in a clockwise direction.Good to know
