Take a journey to the Bergisches Land region with its gentle mountain ranges, expansive forests and adventurous hiking paths and enjoya city trip to Kürten, located in direct vicinity to the cultural metropolis Cologne.

Drivers will easily reach Kürten via the State Road B506. For visitors travelling by train on their mini-break to Kürten, the closest station is located in Bergisch Gladbach. From there, you can easily reach Kürten by bus. The airport Cologne/Bonn is less than 15 miles away so that you can enjoy a comfortable journey to Kürten by aeroplane.

The municipality of Kürten consists of the core village and five church villages. The church village of Olpe, first mentioned in records in 1171, with its 45 hamlets and farmsteads, is located in the south-east of Kürten. While on your city trip, be sure to visit Olpe, the “Green Heart” of the large municipality Kürten. The appearance of the district Dürscheid is dominated by the Roman Catholic parish church of St. Nicholas. At the edge of the Dhünntalsperre dam, you will find the “Donkey Village” of Bechen. Many stories surround the landmark of the village which was first mentioned in records in 1175. While on a short trip to Kürten, take some time to explore Biesfeld, a place of pilgrimage which translates to “field with small harvest”. In the centre of the district, you will find the Church “Zur schmerzhaften Mutter” which is a listed building.

Explore the diverse hiking paths with more than 150 miles of marked paths leading through the nature park Bergisches Land while on your city trip to Kürten. Enjoy the scenery of the low mountain range landscape with lush, green forests and fields around the large Dhünntalsperre dam. It is not accessible for water sports but awaits with breathtaking views for hikers and nature lovers. Take a trip on horse-drawn carriages and wagons to explore the area. The area around the largest drinking water dam in the west of Germany impresses with speciose flora and fauna. You will find more than 80 species of birds here, 20 of which are among endangered species.

Enjoy a day of fun with the family at the Erlebnisbad Splash in Kürten. Four indoor and two outdoor pools, many water games and a water slide of more than 70 yards offer exciting swimming adventures. Find some relaxation in the sauna area with a beautiful sauna garden while on your city trip to Kürten.

For all friends of the sport of Golf, the course of the Club KürtenBergerhöhe is beautifully set on the crest of the Bergisches Land region and will impress nature lovers as well.
