Rinderbach (Ruhr)
The Rinderbach is a small river in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is a right tributary of the Ruhr river.
The Rinderbach's source is located near Bochum-Stiepel. It flows generally southwards, passing through Bochum and Witten, before emptying into the Ruhr river near Witten-Herbede. The Rinderbach is relatively short, with a length of approximately [Insert accurate length if known, otherwise leave as approximate] kilometers.
The river's name, "Rinderbach," likely derives from the German word "Rind," meaning cattle, suggesting that the area surrounding the stream was historically used for cattle grazing.
The Rinderbach's water quality has been subject to environmental monitoring and remediation efforts over the years, typical of urbanized rivers in the Ruhr area.
