The Lippe is a 220 km long right tributary of the Rhine in North Rhine-Westphalia with a catchment area of 4,889.9 km². In 2018, the Lippe received the River Landscape of the Year award. The Lippe rises in the core town of Bad Lippspringe at the western foot of the Egge Mountains. The Lippequelle, a karst spring with an average discharge of 0.74 m³ / s, is located at the southern end of the Arminius Park between the Lippe Institute in the west and the Congress House in the east. In the Paderborn district of Sande, the water of the river has been dammed to the Lippesee since 1989, but has been led around the lake for the most part in the Lippesee flood for the purpose of renaturation. The Lippe continues to flow in a westerly direction through the southern part of the Westphalian Bay.

Mobile chicken coop and farm vending machine at Lippesee

Highlight • Structure

I also come here regularly and can see that this chicken mobile is moved weekly so that the chickens are always supplied with fresh grass. At the farmer around the corner there is a machine that also offers potatoes, eggs (10 pieces currently cost € 3.80), drinks and snacks. The offer is well received.
