View of Beyenburg and St. Mary Magdalene Abbey from the Beyenburger Reservoir

Highlight • Viewpoint

Beyenburg has beautiful half-timbered houses with slate, it is a lovely little town. The Way of St. James runs through it, and the Church of Mary Magdalene is also a stamping point for pilgrims.

The reservoir is also popular with water sports enthusiasts such as paddlers and rowers.

Fish ladder at the Wupper Dam in Beyenburg

Highlight • Structure

With the commissioning of the fish ladder at the Beyenburg reservoir, the Wupper is also accessible to fish and small creatures in this section.

The state of North Rhine-Westphalia contributed 500,000 euros to the construction of the facility itself. The willingness of “long-distance road users” is great: eels, grayling, perch, trout, barbel have already been found here – and of course the long-awaited salmon.

Landhaus Bilstein

Highlight • Restaurant

The Landhaus Bilstein is the ideal starting point and end point for hikes. We only had lunch here, then turned our round and then coffee and cake were taken to us. Everything was delicious and the service was super nice! She has also given us information material for hiking and cycling in the area. Of course it was much too cold now, but in summer you can sit in the beer garden.

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.
