    Idyllic little stream, largely uneven.

      Navigation point path along the Schwarzbach.
      Natural little stream.
      Wikipedia:
      The Schwarzbach is a brook in the Bergisches Land in North Rhine-Westphalia. It rises in the area of Mettmann directly on the border with Wülfrath [2] and flows through Ratingen and Düsseldorf into the Rhine.

      The stream is about 27 km long and has a catchment area of 55 km². [3] It has the water quality class II (moderately polluted). Its fish population consists of brown trout, rainbow trout, char, perch, roach / feathers, carp, pike, catfish and pikeperch.

      In Ratingen, as a largely natural stream, it crosses two nature reserves and a landscape protection area. Between Ratingen and Düsseldorf, its course was more humanly influenced by sand mining and the remaining quarry ponds, Düsseldorf Airport and the Düsseldorf-Nord motorway junction. To the north of the airport, it is connected to the Kittelbach by a ditch. In Düsseldorf-Kalkum it flows through the park of the palace before it reaches its confluence with the Rhine in Düsseldorf-Wittlaer.

      The brook is the namesake of some geographical objects. In his Mettmann headwaters, the Obschwarzbach district, which emerged from the former Obschwarzbach and Niederschwarzbach districts, is named after him; Ratingen crosses the Schwarzbachtalbrücke of the federal motorway 3.

        Is also part of the Neanderland Trail. To be reached via the Grütersweg and then always along the stream to the department store. This is how you bypass the busy, narrow Mettmanner Straße between Mettmann and Ratingen.
