Simply beautiful 😍 Great way, from the castle, through the forest, along the Wupper and to the bridge. Super, the crossing with the hand-driven train to the other bank 💪 …

Wiesenkotten Bridge over the Wupper River

Highlight • Bridge

The Wupperbrücke to Wiesenkotten is a steel / wooden bridge and leads between the Müngstener bridge and Solingen Castle on the Wupper. Very quiet and shady area, great to take a break even in high heat.

Beautiful trail along the Wupper

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful paths along the Wupper.
It's best to hike during the week when there aren't so many people out and about.

Diederich Temple overlooking the Müngsten Bridge and the Wupper

Highlight • Viewpoint

The short detour from the cycle path to the Diederich Temple is worth it just for the view. A view of Wupper and the bridges is fantastic.

Today we went for a leisurely hike along the Wupper and around the Müngsten Bridge, it slowed us down. Despite the heat it was very pleasant in the forest and the tour with the suspension bridge is always something special. It was very beautiful.

A really nice round that you can walk anytime and anywhere; preferably with such great company.

In the packed 658 bus we went to the Müngsten Bridge Park and from there on foot on a small men's tour to the Schaberg train station. The S7 back to Remscheid was also well filled. Only on the way we met relatively few people and that in this great area. Due to the humidity, the 6 km were enough …

That was a really great hike. 👍
Sooo beautiful paths, so close to the bridge and very beautiful paths along the Wupper 🤩
This is an experience. 👏
I was there in the morning, in the afternoon it was already quite full. But there are still enough paths for everyone.

First on the agenda was climbing the Müngsten Bridge and because the weather was freezing cold but sunny and with blue skies, I decided to go on a short hike along the Wupper.
