View of the Müngsten Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

The train ride (runs every 30 minutes) from Remscheid-Lennep (there are plenty of parking spaces there) over the Müngstener Bridge to Solingen-Schaberg is a highlight. From there, a comfortable circular route leads down to the Müngstener Bridge Park. There is a nice kiosk plus mini golf, Haus Müngsten is a family-friendly restaurant and other attractions such as the ferry across the Wupper.
And: CLIMBING ROUTINE AT A HEIGHT OF 100 METERS - Open from August 1st, 2021
brueckensteig.de/muengstener-brueckenpark-die-tour/#oeffnungszeiten

Whether young, old, big or small - the Brückensteig is a breathtaking experience for everyone! Unique in Europe: The via ferrata over Germany's highest railway bridge allows you to experience industrial culture up close. A guided tour takes you step by step over the steel arch of the Müngsten Bridge to the highest point, where the climb is rewarded with a spectacular view. At €79 for a single ticket, it's not exactly cheap.

View of the Wupper River

Highlight (Segment) • River

The landscape of the Wupper valley is extraordinarily beautiful. It is hard to imagine that there was once an intensively used commercial landscape here. Today the water is clean again and nature has recovered.

Wiesenkotten Bridge over the Wupper River

Highlight • Bridge

The Wupperbrücke to Wiesenkotten is a steel / wooden bridge and leads between the Müngstener bridge and Solingen Castle on the Wupper. Very quiet and shady area, great to take a break even in high heat.

Beautiful trail along the Wupper

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful paths along the Wupper.
It's best to hike during the week when there aren't so many people out and about.

Diederich Temple overlooking the Müngsten Bridge and the Wupper

Highlight • Viewpoint

As Diederichstempel two lookout pavilions at Castle and Müngsten, southeast of Solingen above the Wupper called.

The two pavilions were donated by the wealthy August Diederichs end of the 19th century and the early 20th century. Diederichs, who came from Remscheid and at the time was a retired director of a Swiss boarding school, chose the place for the buildings himself and set up a contract. He decreed that the pavilions should be open to the public at all times of the day and year.Wikipedia
