Confluence of the Wupper and the Rhine

Highlight • River

If you come from the Bergisches Land, you have to go here! But that also applies to everyone else. It's a nice, open and flat area. Take a little time. It's great to stay there and lie down on the lawn.

A very nice place to unwind, think, talk, walk, ride a bike, do sports and walk the dog.
Nowadays it is rare to find such a beautiful open space directly on the Rhine.

If so old trees could talk, they would have some great stories in store.

The first trip of the day starts in Leverkusen-Hitdorf, where the last ride ends at the end of the day. During operating hours, the ferry operates every fifteen minutes according to schedule, and runs continuously during rush hour traffic. The crossing takes about five minutes.

The ferry service may be temporarily suspended for safety reasons (eg during flood, storm or fog) as well as for technical reasons (eg during inspections).
