The best running trails around Nützenbergpark

Interesting what the Komoot AI does with highlight names. I think this river in the Bergisches Land is called the Wupper... 🤔

NUNO VIEGAS (Quarteira) Rudolfstraße 8

Mural by Nuno Viegas, created at the end of July 2025 in the Urban Art Space Wuppertal. An eye-catcher in a very prominent location on the Ostersbaum, easily visible to pedestrians/cyclists (possibly even from the road in winter) as well as from buses/cars. A safe photo spot at the traffic light/intersection. Access to the Nordbahntrasse (Northern Railway Line) and other street art, such as the famous Lego bridge, are located nearby. "Nuno Viegas is a Portuguese artist who was born in Faro in 1985 and grew up in Quarteira. In his works, Nuno creates a contrast between the visually aggressive and sometimes dirty reality of traditional graffiti and its peaceful and clean representation. Exploring this topic is an ongoing homage to all those who dedicate part of their lives to this scene." Source: https://www.urbaner-kunstraum.de/event/ukw-mural-by-nuno-viegas/

simply to enjoy

During the summer months, there's a lovely beer garden here, perfect for relaxing. Here you can enjoy delicious food and drinks, even if you weren't on the trail.

A good place to meet. Indoor and outdoor dining right on the Nordbahntrasse. A place where a lot happens: events, live music, lectures, etc. There is also a bike rental.

The Nützenberg Park is located in the center of the Nützenberg Forest. The creation of the park structures was started in 1874 by the Elberfeld Beautification Association. Here, at the highest point of the Nützenberg, stands the Weyerbusch Tower, built in 1898. Opposite it is the park keeper's house, Haus Weyerbusch, from the same period of construction as the tower. A playground has been created around the Weyerbusch Tower, where a summer festival is held once a year. Next to the soccer field, there is a large gravel sports field to the north of the Nützenberg Park, which is known as Kaiserhöhe. The park and its large playground were also renovated and expanded as part of the 2006 Regionale, so that a high ropes course, an artificial turf soccer field and other climbing equipment are now available. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%C3%BCtzenbergpark

Lüntenbeck station was located at km 23.3 on the REG line from Düsseldorf to Hagen and further to Dortmund (kilometering from D-Derendorf). Lüntenbeck station was a railway-related specialty, because where could you find a stop on a quasi four-track line? The line was not “truly” four-track here, but the route seemed that way, because the stop on the Rhenish line was located exactly at the junction of the two branches to Düsseldorf and Vohwinkel. The first branch was the original line from 1879, while the Vohwinkel line was a connecting line to the BME line that opened on April 1, 1896 (kilometering from Vohwinkel 2.1 km). From the junction to the eastern Varresbeck station, the route was multi-track for about a kilometer, conveying a “special significance”. A marshalling yard was also built in Varresbeck. For model railway enthusiasts, the Lüntenbeck stop was something of a cherry on top, with its platforms initially connected by a delicate pedestrian bridge. The station was officially opened on October 30, 1953, initially as a stop on demand for rail buses. From December 15, 1954, it was upgraded to a regular stop for the (usually short) steam trains. The station name was from the start with the Wuppertal addition. more information: http://www.bahnen-wuppertal.de/html/bahnhof-reg-nach-1950.html
