Tip by

4.12 km

The cycle path on a railway line connects Hattingen with Wuppertal and leads southwards with a slight incline through the beautiful hilly low mountain range landscape of the northern Bergisches Land. During the approx. 20 km route it even goes through 2 tunnels, of which the Schee tunnel is almost 800 meters long. In Hattingen you have a direct connection to the cycle path network of the Ruhr and in Wuppertal you can cycle along the Nordbahntrasse through the whole city.

Schulenberg Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

The Schulenberg tunnel in Hattingen is an old railway tunnel that connected Hattingen to Wuppertal via the coal railway. Today the coal railway cycle route runs there and the tunnel eliminates the strenuous bypass that you had to undertake until a few years ago.
