Schluff Rail Trail (St. Tönis – Süchteln)

Highlight • Cycleway

Here the cycle path is still really easy to ride, but I don't really like going further in the direction of Krefeld.

Bridge and railway crossing over the Niers

Highlight • Bridge

There is not only a bridge over the Niers, but also a level crossing (if you drive along the Niers). Some time ago, this railway barrier could only be opened if you requested it at a small box.

Niers River near Viersen

Highlight • River

I like the Niers and would like them to build a path from the source to the mouth directly along the entire river, plus one or two localities.
But even so, there are countless opportunities to stop off and take a break and the bike path is nice to ride.

Neersen Castle

Highlight • Castle

Well-preserved castle complex with extensive park. The castle can look back on an eventful history since the Middle Ages. A visit is worthwhile. The Neersen Castle Festival has been held there every year since 1984.
