Entrance to the Naafbachtal cycling and hiking trail

Highlight • Trail

The Naafbachtal is a nature reserve, and a dam was actually supposed to be built here. The valley is unspoilt with some pretty little settlements made up of old half-timbered houses. Highly recommended.

beautiful round through two valleys, the Aggertal and the NSG Naafbachtal with its water buffaloes. Mostly great small roads and paths, little traffic. Only the ascent from the NSG Naafbachtal from km 18.5 to km 21.1 up to Mohlescheid and then from km 22.5 to km 23.9 is something for e-bikers.

Once again turned a standard round through the NSG Naafbachtal .. spring .. a bit muddy, but good to drive on. A little up and down .. as usual in the Bergisches Land. And it didn't rain. lohmar.de/erlebnisfaktor-natur-und-sport-freizeit-und-tourismus/tourismus/sehenswertes/naafbachtal-naafer-muehle
