Like every major city, Cologne, with its many residents and visitors, needs a portion of its area as a "green lung." Here in the Rheinaue, the green blends beautifully with the blue of "Father Rhine."

The Rheinaue is a lively place with a view of the Stammheimer Ufer and the new apartment blocks. Lots of walkers / hikers, dogs, and wild birds including herons. The Cologne Green Belt and the Cologne Path pass here.

Many Cologne residents haven't seen this strip on the banks of the Rhine yet.
It's just too hidden behind the Niehler harbor basin for that.
Bicycles should avoid it in my opinion, there is a bike path above for that.
