Erft River in Grevenbroich

Highlight • River

The Erft with many hiking trails and a well-kept appearance. Some works of art are exhibited on the Erft. Information boards inform hikers and walkers about life in and around water. Many canoeists practice moving in the water.

Erft Canoe Course

Highlight • River

Nice urban recreation area. Here you can watch the canoeists fighting the water, but also the play spider (playground) and without Corona in summer, the Evitabeach is right next to the canoe route.

From Gustorf to Grevenbroich, there is a very nice stretch of road that runs directly along the Erft. By the way, you learn here from some beautifully designed boards, among others. something about the Erft fish world.

Grevenbroicher Bend Wildlife Park

Highlight • Structure

always worth a trip with smaller children - during the lockdown, however, only the outer path around the enclosure is passable - the rest is closed - unfortunately

A very nice round, a lot through the forest, but also a little along a meadow and now and again the Erft in view and crossed

Today we did a nice and relaxed family hike in Grevenbroich along the Erft in the best hiking weather. 🥾🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🚶

A beautiful, flat tour, easy to walk even in athletic shoes. The trails are mostly in the shady forest. Plenty of parking is available on Schloßstraße. A short walk into the city center allows for a spot of lunch or coffee at the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul after the tour.

Man, that was a lot of work, rehashing this tour. Carli wanted to test his small compact camera for komoot, and I also brought my big camera. So, in the end, we had 230 photos from four devices, because some of the photos were also taken with smartphones. So, first we had to edit them, straighten crooked horizons, correct building …

Very nice round on the Erft with kingfisher sightings 🥰🥰
Parked in the parking lot to the watermill.

We took advantage of today's spring-like weather and enjoyed the warming rays of sunshine and the chirping, trilling and singing of the flock of birds.
