Lippe headwaters

The Lippe rises west of the Eggegebirge mountains near Bad Lippspringe and flows westwards as a typical lowland river between the Münsterland and Ruhr regions to flow into the Rhine near Wesel. Thanks to extensive renaturation measures, the once heavily straightened course of the river is now once again a delight with countless, varied river meanders in a charming meadow and meadow landscape with beautiful gravel banks and a diverse waterfowl population.
