Sülztalbahn Rail Trail through Königsforst

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Since the beginning of May 2013, the old railway embankment, which was converted into a cycle-walk path between Hommerich and Lindlar, has been driven on and on with a clear conscience.

Wahner Heide Heathland

Highlight • Natural

Wonderful corner at the gates of Cologne / Bonn. Particularly easy to drive on with children, especially when it is dry. I can only recommend a detour to the adjoining café in Gut Leidenhausen (ice cream, cake, drinks).
