Tenter Bach und Bökerbach

The Tenter Bach und Bökerbach reserve covers 30.55 hectares of land with meandering streams, floodplains, wet meadows, and steep slopes near Remscheid's southeastern edge.

The protected area received its initial designation in 1983, followed by a formal establishment in 2003, replacing the former Bökerhöhe nature reserve of 7 hectares.

The reserve maintains educational programs for local residents, enabling them to learn about environmental protection and regional biodiversity through direct observation.

Visitors can access hiking paths throughout the reserve, which spans elevations from 235 to 320 meters above sea level, bordered by the A1 motorway.

The area contains two distinct stream systems with natural winding courses, featuring flat and steep banks, embankments, and gravel bars that support diverse plant communities.
