Hiking

The entire railway line is currently being maintained. However, "maintenance trains" are still running through the valley.

Here it goes over the tracks.
Caution: trains actually run here, but they announce themselves loudly.

"... The Angertalbahn, also known as the Kalkbahn because of the lime transport, runs mostly along the Angerbach between Ratingen West and Wülfrath. The 17.22-kilometer-long route was opened in 1903. Only after the railway was completed could the large limestone quarries around Wülfrath and on the upper Düssel. Lime is transported on it from Wülfrath to the smelting works on the Rhine and Ruhr. ..."
