Schee Station

Highlight • Historical Site

The Schee station was opened in 1886 on the railway line Wuppertal - Wichlinghausen - Hattingen, approximately at the highest point of the route. The monument was often used as a backdrop for film and television recordings.

Felderbach Valley

Highlight • Gorge

Fantastic route between Herzkamp and Nierenhof, mostly slightly downhill in this direction. It's great to ride, and when the weather is good there are of course a few motorbikes on the route.
