The Burbacher Bach (also called Bornbach or Burbach for short) is a brook in Hürth in the foothills west of Cologne . It is the Oblerlauf of the Stotzheimer Bach . Before lignite mining began , it originated in the west of the historic Berrenrath . Three mills were previously operated on the stream.
Today the Burbacher Bach rises from the Hürther Waldsee near the Burbach Monastery . It runs through Burbach and becomes the Stotzheimer Bach at the transition between Burbach and Stotzheim . This originally flowed into the Duffesbach , but nowadays on the western edge of Stotzheim into the Cologne Rand Canal . The course of the Burbacher Bach, which is still near-natural for long stretches, is classified as a protected biotope . Most of the Bachverlaus is accessible as a parallel hiking trail.
