A small pond, which is a surprising refreshment for every furry friend. If they don't know it yet ;)

Riding uphill is also very beautiful, long and steep.

Right next to Café Hubraum, a popular motorcycle meeting point, you'll find this great bridge over the Wupper river.

The most beautiful single-trail descent for miles around. The gradient runs north to south. There are magnificent views of the valleys on both sides, which are breathtakingly beautiful in sunshine. The descent is challenging (S2), but not too difficult – except for the last bend, which I'm afraid to attempt.
