Cycling

At the fork of the Erft and the Großer Erft, there is a small bridge over the Großer Erft and behind it an opportunity to dip your feet into the relatively shallow water. Especially in hot temperatures, there are always people there, even bathing in the water to cool off. It is definitely worth stopping by and trying it out for a quick cool-down.
