    Some sections of the Niers have been converted into nature parks, where we take care of the well-being of people and animals.

      The Niers shows idyllic and typical Lower Rhine landscape along the river. The river itself is about 120km long and rises near Erkelenz and flows into the Maas.

      On the way you will find many mills, numerous mansions, moated castles and palaces

        "The Niers is a river in the Lower Rhine area that runs parallel to the Maas and Rhine on the eastern side of the German-Dutch border. The banks of the Niers are a popular local recreation area, and the river itself offers numerous opportunities for water sports and natural paddling tours.

        In Goch it turns west to flow into the Meuse at Gennep (Netherlands).

        The headwaters of the Niers are in Kuckum, in the eastern part of the city of Erkelenz.

        The Niers used to have several sources, the main sources were at Zourshof in Kuckum and at the "Klocken jump" in Keyenberg. The Niers also receives inflow from various small watercourses (drainage ditches), such as the Köhm from the direction of Borschemich, which flows into the Niers in Keyenberg. Water from the ditch system of Haus Keyenberg, which in turn was fed by springs, also flowed into the Köhm.

        From Kuckum, the Niers flows through Wanlo, Wickrathberg, Wickrath, Odenkirchen, Rheydt, Mönchengladbach, Neersen, Viersen, Süchteln, Grefrath, Wachtendonk, Straelen, Pont, Geldern, Veert, Wetten, Kevelaer, past Castle Wissen and on through Weeze and Goch ."
