Entlang der Dhünn

Wonderful forest landscape with musical accompaniment of the rushing streams in the ears ;-)

An idyll for hiking, cycling and relaxing

Incredibly beautiful wild valley. Must be gorgeous in spring.

There are very beautiful hiking trails along the Dhünn.

Very nice varied route, for this you had to climb a narrow part over and under the fallen trees.

Here you can also let your mind wander and listen to the water.

A beautiful path along the quiet babbling Dhünn

Especially in summer it is very pleasant to walk here. It's nice and cool on this wooded stretch...

Always new great views.

Silent Waters

"At around 40 kilometers, the Dhünn is the longest tributary of the Wupper. However, the water from the Dhünn only accompanies the Wipper for a short distance, because it flows into the Wupper in Leverkusen. Shortly thereafter, the Wupper flows into the Rhine.The Dhünn is best known as the city river of Leverkusen and for its dam, the Great Dhünn Dam and its upstream dam. The two headwaters of the Dhünn converge in the Great Dhünn Dam before merging into the actual river. The source arms are referred to as Big Dhünn and Small Dhünn according to their different lengths.In the past, many areas of the Dhünn were used for fish farming and hydroelectric power generation. However, as part of comprehensive renaturation measures, a large part of the old weirs were dismantled. In addition, since 2010, the Dhünn has been the first river without weirs and other obstacles that is barrier-free for fish and other water dwellers."
