Industrial Heritage Tour

Look forward to a cycling tour through the industrial heartland of the Bergisches Land region. The tour begins at the railway museum in Dieringhausen, where the atmosphere of bygone railway days can still be felt. You can admire vintage locomotives before the tour climbs a few hills into the neighboring Wiehl Valley and the Oberwiehl waterways. Here you'll learn how the region has successfully managed the structural changes of recent decades and continues to utilize hydropower. A visit to the LVR Industrial Museum in Engelskirchen provides a comprehensive overview of the Bergisches Land's industrial history and rounds off this tour perfectly.

Arrival/Departure:
The Dieringhausen and Engelskirchen train stations are served by the RB 25 regional train from Cologne. Parking is available at both stations.
