Hobrede

Hobrede is a locality within the municipality of Lindlar in the Oberbergischer Kreis district, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is situated in the Bergisches Land region. Historically, Hobrede was a rural settlement, and like many areas in the Oberbergisches Land, its development was influenced by agriculture and small-scale industry.

The area is characterized by its undulating landscape, typical of the Bergisches Land, with rolling hills and forested areas. The population is relatively small, and the settlement retains a village-like atmosphere.

The proximity to Lindlar, the main municipal center, provides residents with access to essential services, amenities, and public transportation. The economy of Hobrede and its surrounding areas has traditionally relied on agriculture, but over time, like many rural German communities, it has seen a diversification of its economic base, with some residents commuting to nearby industrial and commercial hubs. The natural environment surrounding Hobrede offers opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking and cycling, which are popular pastimes in the Bergisches Land.
