Always nice, it's also a hiking tour

At the old Wilhelmstal paper mill, the cycle path is difficult to find, very narrow and in poor condition below the factory buildings. At the moment (August 2022) you can drive across the factory premises and turn right after the first hall, past the gate, and also reach the bike path.

Undisturbed enjoyment is only possible with an e-bike. Lots of climbs. But scenically extremely attractive

After 8.6 KM it's better to take a sharp right towards Oberdahl!!!

You can drive very well on the left side of the Wupper. There is no traffic there, but you have to push your bike for about 200 meters at the sewage treatment plant.

A tour I've always wanted to do. It was worth it.
