Impressions from our rivers

• 

  People appreciate informal access to the river

• 

  High water levels are frequent on the river Neckar because of its broad catchment area

• 

  Swans and other water birds can frequently be observed in the middle of the city, very much appreciated by citizens

• 

  the mouth of river Steinach into Neckar is a very iconic and popular urban landscape element

• 

  Steinach is a tributary to the Neckar and only partially accessible

• 

  Steinach is a hidden treasure at neighbourhood level

• 

  further upstream, people in high density housing love to use the river areas in informal ways

• 

  Steinach is a place for nature in the city
