Nümbrecht

Nümbrecht is a health resort in the Oberbergischer Kreis region of North Rhine-Westphalia, surrounded by extensive forests and walking paths. Situated at about 298 meters elevation, it offers over 300 kilometers of well-developed walking routes that wind through the countryside.

The location was first documented in 1131 as part of a papal possession confirmation record related to the Bonn Saint Cassius monastery. Archaeological evidence shows settlements existed here since the Stone Age.

The community hosts annual September potato festivals that celebrate local farming traditions and bring together residents and visitors. These celebrations reflect how people here maintain a connection to the agricultural past that shaped the region.

The Parkhotel on Parkstraße 3 provides accommodation and wellness facilities including a sauna and swimming pool. The many walking routes here range in difficulty, so visitors can choose paths suited to their fitness level.

A watchower about 30 meters tall lets visitors look far across the landscape to spot river valleys and mountain ranges. This vantage point offers an unexpected perspective across the otherwise forested hillsides of the area.
