Blue and green – The reservoir route

The region around Marienheide, Wipperfürth, and Hückeswagen boasts a density of reservoirs that is unique in Europe. This bike tour takes you past four of these reservoirs. What impact do the reservoirs have on the flora and fauna, and which animals have found a habitat there? Three audio clips will tell you more about the small or hidden creatures that you might not see at first glance. Water will be your constant companion on this tour through the Bergisches Land region. See the source of the Wupper River or join us for a guided inspection of the Bever Dam – there's plenty to discover on this bike tour!
