==Geography== Werdohl is located in the hills of the [[Sauerland]], at a double meander of the river [[Lenne]] and its confluent, the Verse. The highest elevation is the ''Hölzerne Klinke'' with 448.8m above sea level, the lowest is in valley of Lenne at the boundary to the city [[Altena]] with 162m. Werdohl shares borders with (clockwise) Altena, Neuenrade, Plettenberg, Herscheid and Lüdenscheid. A large part of the area, about 19.2 km<sup>2</sup>, is meadows and forests and is used for agriculture and forestry, followed by 3.18 km<sup>2</sup> of residential areas and 1.24 km<sup>2</sup> are commercial and industrial areas. ===Urban districts=== The city centre is located at the banks of the river Lenne and at the foot of surrounding hills. The townships are Versevörde, where the river Verse flows into the river Lenne, Königsburg, Rodt and Erlhagen. Kettling lies upstream of the Lenne at the border to Plettenberg. Ütterlingsen, Dresel and Elverlingsen are downstream of the Lenne towards the border to Altena. Following the Verse from upstream from Versevörde to Lüdenscheid, the townships Osmecke, Pungelscheid, Kleinhammer, Eveking, Bärenstein and Oberborbecke are located upstream in the valley of the Verse (Versetal) or on the hills forming the valley.
