      The Hildener Stadtwald invites you to go hiking, regardless of whether you start in Hilden, Haan, Solingen-Ohligs or Erkrath-Hochdahl!

          A nice section of the path along the sand stream; the Sandbach is a left tributary of the Hoxbach (=> to Eselsbach, => to DĂŒssel).

            For children, a change of clothes is not wrong here (fun must be sometimes and sometimes the little ones just come out of the stream wet)

              Walkable forest area very close to DĂŒsseldorf

                In the Hilden city forest you can wonderfully hike along streams that are rich in water. Well-paved paths and many park benches can be found here. Walking is ideal for old and young and water-loving dogs

                  The Hoxbach and the Sandbach, into which the Krebsbach flows near Kesselsweier, are two near-natural, meandering sand streams with steep banks, small sandbanks, and slow-flowing and fast-flowing sections. See: de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hildener_Stadtwald,_Bereich_Sandbach-Krebsbach
