There are many beautiful hiking trails. Unfortunately, many are also crushed by horses' hooves.

Herbringhauser Brook Valley

Highlight • River

The Herbringhauser Bach is a 7.103 km long brook and a tributary of the Wupper, which has its source at around 340 meters above sea level in the Lüttringhausen district near the Remscheider Ringstrasse.
After the "Kreuzmühle" antechamber, an approximately 420 meter long antechamber, it is then stowed in the Herbringhauser dam, which is around two kilometers long.

Herbringhauser Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Herbringhauser dam (until 2006 "Upper Herbringhauser dam") is a drinking water dam in the Bergisches Land (North Rhine-Westphalia). It was built from 1898 to 1901 by the city of Barmen, which was still independent at the time and now belongs to Wuppertal. The Herbringhauser Bach is dammed. Until December 31, 2015, the Wuppertaler Stadtwerke (WSW) was the operator. On January 1, 2016, the dam became the property of the Wupperverband, which had acquired it together with the Kerspe dam from the WSW for EUR 46 million.
