Sparkassen-Geocaching-Lehrpfad Paderborn

The starting point of the tour is the parking lot at Bistro Waldklang in Haxtergrund. If you wish, you can find out more about geocaching and the nature trail at a display case in front of the forest school. Square signs with the words "Geocaching Lehrpfad" and a red arrow ensure that you stay on the "right" path.

It is best to walk the nature trail in a clockwise direction. This means that our caching hike - like the Old Pilgrims' Trail - first leads along behind the Bistro Waldklang and then up the slope on a fairly wide forest path. The - mostly dry - bed of the Ellerbach stream can initially be seen on the left. Our first geocache, "The Bridge", is also located in this area. At the end of the path, we turn right and follow the path for around 450 meters. The next geocache, "Der Alte Pilgerweg", is located on this section of the path.

Turn right again, keep straight ahead at the crossroads and walk towards Haxtergrund. We head for the caches "Die Bank" and "Die Fledermaus".

At the bottom of the asphalted valley path, we turn right. After picking up the last of the five geocaches on the nature trail "Der Infostand" we reach our starting point again shortly afterwards.

Freeway A 33 to exit "Pad.-Zentrum", then B 64 in the direction of Bad Driburg to exit "Universität". Follow Warburger Straße (B 68) in the direction of Lichtenau/Warburg, then turn right in the direction of "Waldpark Haxtergrund".

There are usually plenty of parking spaces available at the Bistro Waldkang in Haxtergrund. (Destination address for the navigation system: Haxtergrund 16, 33100 Paderborn)
