The Gelpetal forms together with the Saalbachtal a wooded recreational area in the south of the city Wuppertal on the border to Remscheid. The two streams Gelpe and Saalbach unite in the lower Gelpetal mentioned in Zillertal and lead a short time later in the Morsbach, one of the larger tributaries of the Wupper.

Hiking

We were in Gelpetal for the first time today and we definitely have to come back again when the drought and the heat are over. We really liked it and the information boards were great.
