The Große Dhünn Reservoir is a real highlight for cyclists who appreciate quiet routes and expansive landscapes. On the designated paths, you'll ride through a protected nature reserve with little traffic and plenty of space to enjoy nature. Long, steady stretches and beautiful views of the water make this section ideal for relaxed tours away from busy routes.

The historic village center of Dabringhausen is a small but precious piece of Bergisches Land identity, captivating with its architecture, atmosphere, and history – a place where past and present meet. 🌿🏘️

Very nice sculpture of Bechen's landmark and a nice story about how the donkey became the landmark.

Once the farmyard of Altenberg Abbey and a pilgrim's lodging on the Way of St. James, the building complex between the cathedral and St. Mark's Chapel still exudes tranquility and stability. Inside, you'll be greeted by understated elegance. Special touches combine modern comfort with the site's monastic past.

The Küchenhof, with its more than 260-year-old tradition, was built as a square farm in 1755 next to St. Mark's Chapel and served the monks as a farmyard with a dairy, stables, and a vegetable and herb garden. Today, the Küchenhof is a place of culture, enjoyment, and inspiration. Looking back on a centuries-old history, our zu Sayn-Wittgenstein family is closely connected to Altenberg and the region. With the Küchenhof, we have created a place of enjoyment and tranquility, inviting good conversations and joyful celebrations in a family atmosphere. Experience the special care and attention of our historically grown Küchenhof in Altenberg and enjoy our food and drinks in a monastic ambiance.
