Stödterbachtal und Nebenbäche, Nature reserve in Hückeswagen, Germany.

The Stödterbachtal und Nebenbäche is a protected area near Hückeswagen that includes beech forests, wet meadows, and natural stream courses across varying terrain. The landscape combines wooded sections with open grassland shaped by water movement and traditional land use.

The Stödterbachtal und Nebenbäche nature reserve was established in 2006 on about 35.4 hectares within the city of Hückeswagen, Oberbergischer Kreis. It stretches from southwest of the Scheideweg district almost to the Knochenmühle on Wermelskirchen territory in the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis. The protected area covers the valleys of the Strucksfelder Bach, Dörpfelder Bach, Stödter Bach (called Kleine Dhünn by the Wupperverband) and Straßweger Bach with its tributaries Kotthausener Delle and Bockhackener Bach.

The reserve's name comes from the Stödter Bach, which the Wupperverband water authority records as the Kleine Dhünn. The protected area also takes in the Strucksfelder and Dörpfelder Bach valleys and the Straßweger Bach with its two tributaries, the Kotthausener Delle and the Bockhackener Bach.

The area is accessible via marked trails and well suited for hiking and wildlife observation at a relaxed pace. Sturdy footwear is recommended as terrain can be muddy after rain and paths wind through uneven ground.

The reserve protects the valleys of several small streams: the Strucksfelder Bach, Dörpfelder Bach, Straßweger Bach and Stödter Bach, the last known in the Wupperverband's naming as the Kleine Dhünn. Two tributaries of the Straßweger Bach, the Kotthausener Delle and Bockhackener Bach, are also part of the 35.4-hectare site.
