As you cycle through the historic old town of Hückeswagen, the character of the route changes noticeably. Narrow streets, half-timbered houses, and the castle perched high above the town define the landscape. This section adds an urban flair to the tour and reveals a different side of the Bergisches Land region – compact, historic, and vibrant, seamlessly integrated into the route.

I really liked the old town of Hückeswagen, which is under monument protection. With the three churches and the castle, a visit is worthwhile, perhaps also in combination with the Bergisches Streifzug No. 2.
