Padersee (West side)

Highlight • Lake

The Pardersee is halfway between the city center and Neuhaus Castle and is fed by the Jaguar. The lake was created in the 1970s as a flood retention basin for the protection of the district Neuhaus Castle and also serves as a recreation area. In the area there is an adventure playground, a beer garden and very nice paths.

Today we walked a bit along the Pader River from Paderborn city center to Lake Padersee. I accidentally didn't record the return journey, so the photos are a bit jumbled up 🙈.

Today at the round at the Pader, I forgot the time. There were so many motifs, you met familiar faces and a lot of time was gone😁. But it was already there. Wish everyone a happy 2nd Advent
