Hanfbach

Highlight • River

Researchers assume that the name derives from hanapha (hanafa) from Germanic hanan (singing, sounding) and apa (river, water), which could have meant something like sounding river. In addition, the name of the city of Hennef is derived from this stream. The place used to be called Hannafo.

View from Wahnbachtalsperre Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

You are here in the water protection area of the Wahnbachtalsperre, which is considered a particularly sensitive area. Please note that heavy use by mountain bikers will result in vegetation being disturbed and irreparable damage to trees, shrubs and soil may occur. The multi-layered structured forest with the adjacent water change zones serves as a habitat for an enormous variety of species, which is also endangered. In addition, the forest floor has a filter effect, thereby contributing to better water quality and also serves as protection against erosion. For this reason, it is important not to leave the signposted hiking trail. This also applies to vantage points along the trail. Please do not leave any rubbish behind, take it home with you or dispose of it in the rubbish bins provided. To protect the drinking water resource, we ask that you comply with the specifications.
