Paderborn Family Hiking Day

On Sunday, May 5, 2024 The City of Paderborn is organizing the fourteenth family hiking day together with the Eggegebirgsverein.

From 9.30 a.m. all Paderborn families are invited to come to the town hall square. Prior registration is not necessary. 

The approximately seven kilometer long hike starts at 10 a.m. at the historic town hall and leads over the Pader spring area and the Schützenhof to the “Merschweg” water playground in Neuhaus Castle. 

Along the way, small and large tasks await the participating families at five children's playgrounds.

From 1 p.m. there will be a final round-up for all participants at the water playground in Schloß Neuhaus with a free snack for well-deserved refreshment at the “House of the Guilds”. 

There will also be a raffle at the end for all the children who hiked with us. What might the prize be?

All Paderborn families are warmly invited to join in the hike. Further information can be found at familienservicecenter.de. 

The Family Service Center, the Children and Youth Office and the Eggegebirgsverein Paderborn are looking forward to a wonderful day of hiking.
