Attractions

On the PanoramaRadweg Niederbergbahn

Along its varied route, the PanoramaRadweg Niederbergbahn not only offers picturesque views, but also lots of sights. For them, it is definitely worth exploring the cultural life beyond the railway lines: the spectrum ranges from the first wagon bridge in Germany in Heiligenhaus and the numerous idyllic old town centers, to the modern Neanderthal Museum or the Wülfrath time tunnel, to the imposing Mariendom in Velbert and the historic village of Gruiten in Haan. But that's not all. Discover it yourself!
