Wiesenkotten Bridge over the Wupper River

Highlight • Bridge

The Wupperbrücke to Wiesenkotten is a steel / wooden bridge and leads between the Müngstener bridge and Solingen Castle on the Wupper. Very quiet and shady area, great to take a break even in high heat.

View of the Wupper River

Highlight (Segment) • River

The landscape of the Wupper valley is extraordinarily beautiful. It is hard to imagine that there was once an intensively used commercial landscape here. Today the water is clean again and nature has recovered.

October 15, 2024,An der Wupper – Schloss Burg Runde von Solingen-Schaberg

Today we went for a hike in the Bergisches Land along the Wupper.
First we passed the Müngstener Bridge. Since we had our dog 🐕 with us, we didn't want to use the muscle-powered suspension bridge, which would certainly have been fun.
So we continued along the hiking trail towards Burg Castle 🏰.
We passed a water pipe where you …

September 16, 2023,Runde Schloss Burg- Sengbachtalsperre

Starting today in Solingen, we went with a dear friend in bright sunshine down to the Wupper, through the forest to the Sengbachtalsperre and back up to Burg Castle. There are many old half-timbered houses here where you can stop off and enjoy delicious Bergisch waffles or other delicacies.

June 19, 2025,Wanderbares Solingen - Müngstener Brücke

Today I was invited on a tour that started in Solingen. It was a tour with plenty of nature and everything a hike needs: forest, water, elevation gain, a castle, and a historic bridge, to name just a few. And that brings us to the destination of the tour, with some information: The Müngsten Bridge, at 107 meters high, is …

April 25, 2025,Erlebnistour an der Wupper

A hike along the Wupper River near Solingen with many highlights.
From the large, free parking lot, the route follows the Wupper to the Müngstern Bridge.
Germany's highest railway bridge is 107 m high and a great photo opportunity. You can even climb the bridge on the guided bridge walk.
The transporter bridge wasn't in operation today, and we didn't …

October 22, 2022,Sengbachtalsperre – Schloss Burg Runde von Burg

After crossing Burger Landstrasse, there is a hornet nest in the tree on the left-hand side. Be careful! Escaped with five stitches. The animals are right next to the trail, hard to avoid. 10/22/2022

February 1, 2025,Schloss Burg - Müngstener Brücke

I led a group on exactly this route in November '24 and when a friend asked me if I had an idea for a tour today, it came to me spontaneously.
In fantastic weather and frosty temperatures, including hair ice🤩, we spent a wonderful time in the forest, at the Müngstener Bridge and the Wupper. The water came from many …
