The Bergisches Land, in Germany, is a true paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. The low mountain landscape between Cologne and Siegen offers romantic valleys, dense forests, wide meadows, and numerous reservoirs and lakes.

You can explore this region intimately on the waymarked hiking trails and thus get in touch with the country and its people. In this Collection, I present eight unique Tours, all of which you can easily complete within half a day to a full day.

So what are you waiting for? Lace up your shoes and pack your camera. A small packed lunch also belongs in your rucksack if you want to picnic at one of the picturesque rest areas. Have fun on your hikes in the Bergisches Land.
