The Wupperwehr is located at the end of lower castle behind the sewage treatment plant. An impressive sight of thunderous water on a wide line.

August 12, 2024,Von Solingen-Glüder nach Unterburg

A highly recommended route, which is also largely in the shade. Highlights are the island in the Wupper near Glüder, the impressive cliffs, the waterworks, Unterburg with beautiful half-timbered houses and many wonderful views of Burg Castle. When most restaurants are closed on Mondays, I recommend the Burger Büdchen with ice cream, cakes and drinks. The tour was really fun.🤗

Nice to walk and great scenery, always along the Wupper. The last part is missing, sung about by the flood, the bridge and the path was closed. However, it is possible to pass the spot if you are reasonably fit.
