Bilstein Footbridge over the Wupper River

Highlight • Bridge

The extremely steep route, a combination of stair segments and mountain path, leads us very quickly into the valley of the Wupper, which we cross on the famous, old pedestrian bridge at the Landgasthof Bilstein.

On this special day (!), Lurt, Möter and I chose tour no. 3 from the hiking brochure "Experience the Ennepetal hiking". It is …
