      "... The nature reserve Purder Bachtal and tributaries is located in the area of the town of Hückeswagen in the Oberbergischer Kreis.
      The approximately 85.5 hectare area, which was placed under nature protection in 2006, extends southwest of the core town of Hückeswagen along the Purder Bach. State road L 68 runs west of the area. ... "
      de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pruder_Bachtal_und_Nebenb%C3%A4che

      "... The Purder Bach is about six kilometers long, northern and right tributary of the Great Dhünn, a tributary of the Wupper.
      The Purder Bach takes its name from the village Purd, where it flows past, and rises at an altitude of 332 m above sea level. NHN near Westhofen in the town of Hückeswagen.
      It flows south through the nature reserve Purder Bachtal and tributaries past the villages of Großkatern and Purd. Below Purd, the brook leaves the Hückeswagen area and then forms the border between the Wermelskirchen and Wipperfürth areas, before reaching an altitude of 197 m above sea level. NHN flows into the Große Dhünn near Niederhagen.
      The approximately 6.1 km long course of the Purder brook ends approximately 135 meters below its source, it thus has a mean bed gradient of 22 ‰.
      The whole valley is a water protection area. ... "

        The paths lead lonely through lovely meadows, again and again through wooded areas, past springs and pastures. The special feature is the very short section of a few hundred meters on a paved road.
        Local activities do not offer any special tourist highlights, but silence, babbling brooks, powerfully bubbling springs, narrow paths and, in some cases, far-reaching views.
