April 2, 2023,Pfadwanderung Morsbach und Kaltenbachtal

This hike combines sections of the Bergischer Weg, the Wuppertaler Panoramaweg and the Petricksweg into a tour with a lot of paths and what feels like 20 stream crossings.
If you like, you can make a detour to the Müngsten Bridge at the end of the tour

July 17, 2022,Petricksweg Kaltenbachtal – Morsbachtal Runde von Hintersudberg

Another dream tour! When a relatively large number of hikers started from the parking lot, we initially thought that this would be a tour with a lot of hiking traffic. Not even close! We were alone for most of the round.

The round is really only recommended. The climbs are challenging at the beginning and shortly before the end. Otherwise, many paths and paths, few roads and town crossings, only very short stretches on main roads. Good to walk in dry conditions. Not in the rain and snow.

November 21, 2021,Runde zwischen Solingen und Remscheid

Today we went to Wuppertal again. A bit monotonous round, but that was mostly due to the time of year and the weather. For the first two hours it almost only rained, after that it got a little better. Finally, I made a detour to the Müngstener Bridge. When you're already there

Wow what a tour! The parking lot was super full today on the holiday but apparently everyone ran rixhrunf Müngstener Bridge. We had most of the paths to ourselves and the path percentage is very high. Did the tour for the second time today and can only recommend it! ☺️☀️

July 9, 2026,Rheinbach-Teiche – Manuelskotten (Wassermühle) Runde von Cronenberg

I really enjoyed yesterday's hike with Günter.

The area with lots of nature and little asphalt is beautiful.

I was allowed to take as many photos as I wanted... my long-time hiking friend let me do my thing and didn't stop me!!!

Also the stop at > Café Born was optimal!

Günter, thank you very much for the wonderful day!

June 1, 2022,Rheinbach – Stiepelhauser Bach ab Brückenpark

Very nice tour with lots of forest and fields, and a little Cronenberg. She has it all with her altitude. In the end we didn't even feel like drinking a coffee in the bridge café anymore
