January 25, 2025,Runde an der Wupper

An absolute classic. The loop along the Wupper from the Haasenmühle to the Wupperhof.

Due to a lost key, we walked part of the route three times and luckily found the key again at the Wipperkotten.

The climb up the Obenrüdener Kottten is quite a challenge. It would be nice if the city replaced the destroyed bridge at some point. …

A nice day trip in the sunshine. Very beautiful paths and steep climbs from Wupperhof along the Wupper, through the Wupper steep slopes, Obenrüdener kotten, Wipperkotten, Zoppesmur and much more. Fantastically beautiful our Bergisches Land.

A nice tour near Solingen.

The Wipperkotten grinding shop was open yesterday and the water-powered grinding machines were in operation. (You can have your knives sharpened here on Fridays)

From there it went along the Wupper. Actually only asphalt on this side - but only hit 3 or 4 cars. From time to time you can dodge into the forest, …

Since yesterday's Morgan on the Wupper was so beautiful, it was repeated and extended today.
Again, it was the morning when there wasn't much going on.
All of this in wonderful sunshine and -1 degrees.

July 22, 2025,Mystische Pfade - 02 - Niederbergisch - Mühlen an der Wupper

Since the craftsman finished earlier than planned, I decided to drive to the hiking parking lot near the Wippermühle mill after 10 a.m. The parking lot was almost full. Now for the next tour from the book: Mystical Tours.
Start at the parking lot and immediately arrive at the first highlight – the historic Wipperkotten (a former mill) – even …
