Nature conservation area Wupper and Wupper slopes with side streams

The Wupper Nature Reserve and Wupper Slopes with Side Streams is a nature reserve of approximately 228 hectares in Leichlingen in the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis, which was first placed under protection in 2004. At the time of its initial designation, it was known as Wupper Slopes with Side Streams and the Wupper north of Witzhelden and Leichlingen and was about 213.26 hectares in size. The revision of the landscape plan for Burscheid and Leichlingen in 2014 was accompanied by an expansion and renaming of the area.
The nature reserve is also part of the FFH area Wupper from Leverkusen to Solingen.
