Sülztalbahn Cycle Path in Naturpark Bergisches Land

Highlight • Cycleway

As part of the Sülztalbahn cycle path, the road is nice and smooth asphalt. From time to time there are paved cross gutters, but they are easy to cross.

Hoffnungsthal Village Center and Volberg Church

Highlight • Settlement

Today's Rösrath district of Hoffnungsthal actually goes back to the Volberg an der Sülz settlement, which forms the old town center. The name of the Protestant church in Volberg, whose building history dates back to the 12th century, is still a reminder today.

Ehreshoven Castle

Highlight • Castle

As far as one can see from the sources, Ehreshoven was first mentioned in 1355. At that time, the poor Arnulphus de Graschap asked that the abbot transfer his mortgage with Ehreshoven to his father Heinrich von Grafschaft. This means that in 1355 a small castle, at least a permanent house, existed in Ehreshoven.

Agger reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Ehreshoven reservoir feeds a hydroelectric power plant that was commissioned in 1932. Unfortunately, the water is mainly left to the anglers, as bathing is not permitted here.

Quickly did a lap before the announced rain. From Donrath, however, I did get caught in the rain. Oh well 🤷‍♂️, it was still fun 🚴‍♂️😉
