Since the Nordbahn route runs directly through Wuppertal, you have a good view and a great panorama of the city from some places.

The bridge path: breathtaking panorama from the Müngsten Bridge

In the middle of the Bergisches Land on the border with Solingen and Remscheid, Germany's highest railway bridge spans the Wupper valley. The bridge path at the Müngsten Bridge invites you to experience the monument of European industrial culture up close. A guided tour takes you up to 100 meters high.
The Müngsten Bridge is a landmark of the Bergisches Land and is considered a milestone in German industrial culture. Built 125 years ago, it is still part of the Solingen-Remscheid-Wuppertal railway line and is now even on its way to UNESCO World Heritage status. The "bridge path" opens up the structure to the public. On foot, in a spectacular guided ascent, you go over the arched structure to a viewing platform.

Step by step to a bird's eye view

The tour, which lasts around two and a half hours, starts on the top floor of Haus Müngsten. There, guests are greeted by a member of the Brückensteig team, who acts as a personal guide for the entire duration of the tour. The guides share exciting background information on the history and construction of the Müngsten Bridge and give the opportunity to ask questions during the tour. Once at the foundation, they are given instructions on the continuous safety system: with one movement, they can clip in and the ascent begins.

In the continuous safety system, the climbing teams climb the steps of the arched staircase step by step - while the breathtaking scale of the structure unfolds with every additional meter. At the very top, 100 meters above the ground, the adventure climaxes on a platform with an overwhelming view.
