Don't hit the road before taking a look at what's on offer in wider Bergisches Land. If you're a nature lover, you won't want to miss North Rhine-Westphalia's forests. Alternatively, go to some of the region's ruins, castles and traditional villages. Or spend some time mountain biking and hiking while you're here.

15 kilometres away from Overath you will find Odenthal, where you can spend the day enjoying the Altenberg Cathedral and Deutscher Maerchenwald. Should you wish to spend a night or two in Odenthal, check out the room rates at the Tagungszentrum Maria in der Aue and Hotel Restaurant Altenberger Hof. 20 kilometres to the northeast of Overath, you can also stay at Gummersbach, which is home to the Hotel Aggertal and Wyndham Garden Gummersbach. The Dieringhausen Railway Museum, Lieberhausen Church and Gumbala Water Park are amongst the more popular places to check out when you're in Gummersbach.

Before you head home from Bergisches Land, make sure you catch some sport. Visit Signal Iduna Park to the north of Overath. Those wanting to sleep near to the action can select from the ibis Dortmund City or the Novum Hotel Unique Dortmund Hauptbahnhof.

Cologne - Bonn Airport is the most used airport for accessing Overath and is 15 kilometres drive from the city centre. If you would like to stay nearby, try the Airport Businesshotel Koeln or the Parkhotel St. Georg.
