Very varied little piece along the Schwarzbach. A quiet Singeltrail with Reitersperren and nice views. That is how the Neanderlandsteig should always be.

"... The Schwarzbach is a brook in the Bergisches Land in North Rhine-Westphalia. It rises in the Mettmann area directly on the border with Wülfrath and flows through Ratingen and Düsseldorf into the Rhine.

The stream is about 27 km long and has a catchment area of 55 km². 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. ... "
