The cycle path on a railway line connects Hattingen with Wuppertal and leads southwards with a slight incline through the beautiful hilly low mountain range landscape of the northern Bergisches Land. During the approx. 20 km route it even goes through 2 tunnels, of which the Schee tunnel is almost 800 meters long. In Hattingen you have a direct connection to the cycle path network of the Ruhr and in Wuppertal you can cycle along the Nordbahntrasse through the whole city.

Interesting is the height profile: from Wuppertal it goes with a very gentle slope to the south portal of the Schee tunnel. On a distance of more than 3 km, a height difference of 50 m is overcome, ie 1.5%; to cycle well in the medium-short course. From the north portal of the tunnel to about 250 m above sea level, it then goes on 13 km (except the earlier stations) only with 2% downhill to Hattingen to about 80 m - if you drive around properly, so to speak, a long break. Car-free except for a few road crossings.

This railway line is in a truly idyllic location. The cycle path connects the Wuppertal Nordbahntrasse and Hattingen, where you can quickly reach the RuhrtalRadweg. The route runs through the middle of the countryside and is really beautiful. It is not asphalted, but the well-maintained gravel surface is also easy to ride on with a racing bike, at least when it is dry.
