For centuries this has been the name of a forested green strip along the Saeffelbach (Selfkanf dialect de Bääk) with some swampy sections.
From the previous source (exit towards Schierwaldenrath), this deciduous forest strip stretches across Brüxgen - Breberen - Saeffelen - Höngen - Stein - Havert - to Isenbruch and mouths into Rodebach. Until the straightening that was unfortunately carried out in 1956-1958, "the Bääk" passed through with many bends and congestion, sometimes slowly and sometimes quickly flowing but always clean water "Die Bröök", so that smaller fish stocks (sticklebacks, eels) lived here found.
