Wegberg Castle

Highlight • Castle

Apart from the historical background and the great ambience, there is something here that every cyclist will enjoy: a really delicious breakfast. In the restaurant of the castle you can pamper yourself with the “late riser breakfast” (on weekends until 1.30 p.m.) before you start pedaling well afterwards. Better to reserve a table: burg-wegberg.de/fruehstueck.

Wegberg City Park

Highlight • Parking

The Wegberger mill is right next to the park. Since summer 2020 there has been an info point for tourists, walkers and cyclists to find out about other routes. Right next door you will also find an ice cream parlor with delicious ice cream.

There is a sculpture in the park itself. It is about the connection between the past and the present. Since, as is well known, art can be argued about, everyone should form their own opinion on how they feel about “trash art”.
