Hi Alex,
since German still is difficult, some first hints for you in English:
There are two kinds of naked swimming - such in a Therme, where the whole area is FKK (possibly except restaurant, where a bathrobe will be recommended), usually combined with a variety of saunas, or such where it is a special offer at certain times, usually in the evening of a specific day.
As for hiking - it is not forbidden to be naked in Germany. There is no law that tells you to get dressed, but there are lots of very narrow-minded and stupid people who think there was or should be such a law. Rule of thumb: Best not do it alone and try to stay where no other people are, or only those who do not care (there are two official nude hiking trails in Wippra and Undeloh so far, let's hope there will be more).
Being naked at a lake or river usually is also not a big problem, as long as you do not bother other people directly.
If you are in the Düsseldorf area, Unterbacher SSee or Kaarster See might be interesting for you.
