Location
The youth hostel lies on the outskirts of Nettetal-Hinsbeck, in the “Hinsbecker Schweiz“ recreation area. Located right in the Maas Schwalm Nature Reserve, near the “Four Lakes“ and in extensive woodland areas, Hinsbeck is the ideal base for excursions into the natural environment of the Lower Rhine region, offering peace and quiet and unspoilt natural galore for all fans of rest and relaxation. And yet, our hostel has good transport connections and a central location: it is easily reached from the motorways A40 and A61.
