Wippertalbahn Rail Trail – Rocky Gorge Section

An almost dramatic passage in the rocky cut of the former route of the Wippertalbahn. In summer it is pleasantly shady and easy to drive on the smooth asphalt in all seasons.

View of Cologne Cathedral from Oberborsbacher Straße

Great way, which is definitely preferable to the busy roads in the area. The road is rather narrow and you should drive considerate, as many strollers on the way.
