Pleasantly quiet, not overcrowded (although the full parking lot sometimes suggests something else). A tour through the Neandertal is really relaxing for the eyes and ears ...

Hiking

Along the Düssel you can experience historical town centers and fascinating river meadows, while hiking through it you can explore the Neandertal and at the end reach the Neanderthal Museum. 🤓
