Eifgenbach Stream

Highlight • River

The Eifgenbach stream meanders through the valley, while you can always see it from a few meters higher up. Simply wonderful.

Wooden boardwalk over a stream in Naturpark Bergisches Land

Highlight • Bridge

The whole narrow paths on this round are just great. Here a narrow stream, which is accompanied by a narrow swampy border, has been secured by a boardwalk so that you can get from A to B with dry feet.

Hi everyone. The tour is quite nice to walk; it's full of small forest paths and the sound of the water that accompanies you every now and then 😀. The small villages are also quite interesting. There are frequent ups and downs, so it's good for your butt and your heart rate 🤣. It was nice and quiet except for …

On the 3rd day of vacation we made a wooded tour through the side valleys of the Eifgenbach valley. And again we had the best hiking weather ☀️⛅️. We went leisurely up and down through the woods (climbing included 🪵). For a well-deserved ice cream we stopped at an ice cream parlor in Wermelskirchen. 🍧☕️

Many thanks to the Komoot community for this beautiful tour! Wonderful circular route through forests and fields. Some of them were stretches on the Bergisches Panorama-Steig. In Dhünn we then rewarded ourselves with schnitzel at “Zu den Drei Linden”. Recommended cuisine with regional products and very good meat. 🍽🍺😋

The trail follows the Kleine …

Even though the sun was hidden again today, you could still see colors sparkling through all the gray. A nice tour between Eipringhausen and Dhünn on great root and meadow paths. At the end of the tour it was really tasty in the restaurant “Zu den Drei Linden” 😋👌🏻

Hello @Silvia, that was really great. A few days ago I was wondering where that lovely café was. Glad you came across it. So we've included it in our hike today.☺️

It is a wonderful tour from the Rother hiking guide. We wanted to take a shortcut, but then we found ourselves in front of a sign saying "private property". So it was better to walk via the Knochenmühle...
