einfach bergisch radeln

einfach bergisch radeln
Radfahren im hügeligen Bergischen? Kein Problem! Zahlreiche stillgelegte Bahntrassen im Städtedreieck und im Bergischen Land sind komfortabel für Radfahrer ausgebaut. Damit stehen steigungsarme Radwege mitten durch die Städte, aber auch quer durch die Natur zur Verfügung. Manchmal auch hoch oben in der Luft auf imposanten Viadukten. Diese Wege, die entspanntes Genussradeln ermöglichen, sind für mehrtägige Radreisen oder den Wochenendausflug interessant. Sie verlaufen weitgehend abseits des Autoverkehrs. Für Familien mit Kindern sind dies ideale Bedingungen.
Zwischen Essen und Wermelskirchen sowie zwischen Leverkusen und Olpe verlaufen die drei Radwege: der Bergische Panorama-Radweg (132 km), der Panorama-Radweg niederbergbahn (40 km) und der Panorama-Radweg Balkantrasse (51 km). Sie liegen zwischen Ruhr, Rhein und Sieg und haben Anschluss an den RuhrtalRadweg und den Rheinradweg, sowie den Ruhr-Sieg-Radweg.
Auf den Radtouren wird man oft auf Spuren der Industriekultur stoßen.
In dieser bergischen Landschaft mit ihren Flüssen und vielen Stauseen gibt es 1000 Anlässe, Pause zu machen, um Sehenswertes an der Strecke zu besuchen. Alte Bahnhöfe sind mittlerweile zu Cafés, Biergärten und Kulturstätten geworden. Eine Seilbahn transportiert Radfahrer und Fahrräder hinauf zu Schloss Burg; auf einer Schwebefähre über die Wupper müssen Passagiere selber „man power“ zur Fortbewegung einbringen.
Entdeckt diese kontrastreicheren, vielfältigen, aussichtsreicheren Touren bieten!

Tag 2 unserer Bahntrassen-Tour durch die Radregion Rheinland! Nach einer ziemlich erholsamen Nacht im Landhotel Napoleon Wipperfürth starten wir morgens genauso frisch aufgeladen wie unsere E-Bikes. 😉



Entlang der Bundesstraße geht’s mit tollen Panoramablicken erstmal zurück in den historischen Stadtkern

Finally back in my hometown – practically right on my doorstep! 🤩 And since the Rhineland cycling region is a great place to cycle where the trains used to run, we've picked out three of the most beautiful railway line cycle paths for this weekend.



We'll start with our e-bikes in Essen-Kettwig on the

The cycle path along the old railway line in the Agger and Dörspetal has several highlights, especially for those interested in history and railways. On the comparatively short 15 kilometers from Pernze via Bergneustadt to Dieringhausen, 18 information boards along the way tell you about the exciting

In the middle of the hilly landscape of the "neanderland" the panorama cycle path Niederbergbahn runs on a former railway line that was built in the 1920s with a slight incline in order to be able to use it for passenger and goods transport.

From the hilly landscape of Bergisch to the lowlands of the Rhine: The Balkan route creates the ideal connection. Incidentally, the name of today's bike route is reminiscent of the "Balkan Express" - this was the popular name for the former railway line between Leverkusen-Opladen and Remscheid-Lennep

The second stage on the Bergische Panorama-Radweg is lined with great views of the many dams - also called the water quintet - that are built along the rivers of Wupper, Wipper, Genkel, Agger and Bigge and invite you to refresh yourself. Likewise, on long stretches of road through lush green nature you

With a length of just over 130 kilometers, the Bergische Panorama-Radweg is the longest bike tour in this collection and it offers you many different impressions along the entire route. As described here, you can either ride the bike tour in two roughly equal stages and spend the night in Wermelskirchen

In the footsteps of the railway through the Bergisch to the Sauerland: The Bergische Panorama-Radweg offers a colorful panorama of unusual insights and outlooks.



From Wermelskirchen it goes over part of the route of the water quintet, past blue dams through the castle town of Hückeswagen, the Hanseatic
