Wuppertal Suspension Railway – Vohwinkel Station

Highlight • Monument

The station is located at the western end of the line and is equipped with a turning loop and turnouts. The points allow the arrival and departure of the west of the station located facilities (depot and workshops). In 2007, the station building, which originated from the time of origin, had to make way for a new building. From the station you can reach the station Wuppertal-Vohwinkel, the district center and the trolleybus to Solingen.

Gräfrath old town

Highlight • Historical Site

An idyllic market place surrounded by typical, mountainous half-timbered houses: here you can take a break and fortify yourself in restaurants, cafes or ice cream parlors around the fountain on the market square. The corkscrew route / the Bergische Panorama cycle path lead directly past this historic district. The backdrop of half-timbered houses, the fountain on the market square and the German Blade Museum above is picturesque.

Burg Castle

Highlight • Castle

The hike to Burg Castle is short and challenging, climbing at a gradient of 16 to 19 percent, but the reward is more than worth it. The view of the Lower Castle and Burg Castle is magnificent. And the waffles are highly recommended.

Müngsten Bridge and Aerial Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge is a nice introduction to a tour down the river Wupper. It goes without great differences in height along the scenic valley past an old Kotten (museum grinding) and appealing inns.
I came with the S-Bahn to Solingen Hbf (Ohligs). From there, it's a bit painstaking through the city up the mountain towards Müngstener bridge. But then downhill to Wuppertal and, as I said, enjoyable again towards the main station.
If the Kraxelei in Ohligs is too much can also go by bus to the bridge park.

Old Wuppertal Suspension Railway Carriage

Highlight • Monument

Here is number 8 of the discontinued monorail trains of the GTW72 series. There is now a publicly accessible cafe in it. I have not found opening hours, except that Thursday is served from 9 -12 breakfast.
