Niederbergbahn panoramic cycle path
Enjoy picturesque views on old railway lines
Cycling where trains used to run – the Niederbergbahn panoramic cycle path, which is almost 40 kilometers long, connects the towns of Haan, Wülfrath, Velbert and Heiligenhaus. The route on a disused historic railway line not only takes you to numerous sights such as the historic Gruiten village or the Schlupkothen quarry in Wülfrath, it is also an attraction in itself. Because your way over numerous listed bridges and viaducts opens up fantastic panoramic views of the hilly landscape of Niederberg and brings the railway history of the last 100 years in the Bergisches Land to life. Discover fascinating engineering craftsmanship such as the first wagon bridge in Heiligenhaus, which is unique in Germany. By the way: You don't always have to stay on the same route: the Niederbergbahn panorama cycle path is linked to numerous other railway cycle paths.
