Gut Diepensiepen

Highlight • Historical Site

The name of the farm Diepensiepen can be explained with its location, deep like diep, in Siepen, in the valley. The oldest news about Diepensiepen goes back to the 14th century. On 09.10.1740 Johann Gottfried Benninghoven from Haan married Gertrud Hülsbeck, the daughter of the tenant Dietrich zu Diepensiepen, called Hüllsbeck, and his wife Maria Eidamshaus.

Today, the estate of Christian Benninghoven and his wife Petra, born. Hegwein, farmed. In addition to the forestry and agriculture (fir trees and agriculture), the farm offers an old watermill and a modern barn that can be rented all year round for events. A traditional environment with modern comfort. Event sizes from 30 to 500 people are performed sovereign.

Diepensiepen Fish Pond

Highlight • Lake

Now it applies again: All Diepensiepen here, in every direction you are in Diepensiepen. The evening sun shines almost horizontally across the Diepensiepener Weg and into our eyes until we pass the estate of the same name, notice the little lucky charm at the Hasselbach weir in the shade and have a twilight view over the fish pond, on which unfortunately no shelducks are visible today.

This pond on the Krumbach is beautifully situated in the Bachtal on the circular route A7, but is unfortunately private, therefore not accessible ...

Schwarzbach Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very varied little piece along the Schwarzbach. A quiet Singeltrail with Reitersperren and nice views. That is how the Neanderlandsteig should always be.
