The Dünnwald, with its approximately 410 hectares, is part of Cologne's green belt on the right bank of the Rhine. There is a beautiful bathing lake, a wildlife park, guest houses and, of course, lots of nature. Here you quickly forget that you are actually still in the big city.

I was there for the first time today, wonderful for cycling, probably even nicer for hiking 😀
