The name of the farm Diepensiepen can be explained with its location, deep like diep, in Siepen, in the valley. The oldest news about Diepensiepen goes back to the 14th century. On 09.10.1740 Johann Gottfried Benninghoven from Haan married Gertrud Hülsbeck, the daughter of the tenant Dietrich zu Diepensiepen, called Hüllsbeck, and his wife Maria Eidamshaus.

Today, the estate of Christian Benninghoven and his wife Petra, born. Hegwein, farmed. In addition to the forestry and agriculture (fir trees and agriculture), the farm offers an old watermill and a modern barn that can be rented all year round for events. A traditional environment with modern comfort. Event sizes from 30 to 500 people are performed sovereign.

Diepensiepen Fish Pond

Highlight • Lake

Now it applies again: All Diepensiepen here, in every direction you are in Diepensiepen. The evening sun shines almost horizontally across the Diepensiepener Weg and into our eyes until we pass the estate of the same name, notice the little lucky charm at the Hasselbach weir in the shade and have a twilight view over the fish pond, on which unfortunately no shelducks are visible today.

Schwarzbach Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very varied little piece along the Schwarzbach. A quiet Singeltrail with Reitersperren and nice views. That is how the Neanderlandsteig should always be.

August 2, 2022,Vor der Haustüre 11: Runde Hubbelrath -Ratingen- Hubbelrath

A cozy good evening round with two beauty spots. On the one hand a relatively large amount of asphalt and on the other hand a really ugly corner with an expressway and a motorway bridge. If that doesn't scare you, the rest of the way is a colorful mixture of paths and forest paths, sometimes shady by the stream, sometimes …

Today a tour with friends on the middle Schwarzbach.

Starting and ending at the beautiful Ilbeck farm cafe.

The fertile loess hills are mostly covered by midsummer ripe grain fields. Narrow paths, isolated farmsteads and wide skies...

Actually an area I have often visited, but most of the paths were unknown to me, and I always found a trail along …
