Hiking

Here the Düssel already looks like a brook. The way from the east is a narrow path through the forest with some overtopped trees to climb over. With a bit of luck, you can walk across the stream without your feet wet - there is no bridge, only a few branches and stones. If you want to find out where the Düssel comes from, you are closer here than at the rather artificial "Düsselquelle".

Hiking

This is where the Düssel, the namesake of the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, rises. In 1936 the memorial stone for the Düsselquelle was set by the Heimatverein der Düsseldorfer Jonges. With the help of an overflow from the well, the outlet of the Düsselquelle was made visible in 1998.
