Nordrhein-Westfalen / The Bergisches LandHiking, cycling and golfing
Hiking in Bergisches Land
The beautiful mountain scenery of Bergisches Land with its expansive hills, fields and forests, dams, lakes and creeks is simply made for hiking. Over 4,000 kilometres of marked hiking routes are said to be the most wonderful trails in Germany. The routes offer a range from the ‘Coral forest hiking trail’ to the ‘Burscheid canyon trail’ and ‘Wood-water-wool way’.
Half or at most one day take the 24 different hiking tours called „Bergische Streifzüge“. The trails deal with historical, literary and even technical subjects and are all between four and 16 kilometres long. Six of them are especially for families, so that the children can get a foot into hiking.
Cycling in Bergisches Land
The hilly landscape of Bergisches Land with its green meadows and forests, idyllic valleys and beautiful villages lures visitors to explore the countryside by bicycle. There are different tours, so everybody should find something suitable. Families with children can opt for short routes while ambitious racing cyclists can conquer longer paths and mountain bikers roots and steep slopes in the region’s forests. Those who are slightly less energetic can rent an e-bike and enjoy the 80-kilometre long ‘Wasserquintett’ e-bike route.
Golf in Bergisches Land
Playing golf in midst picturesque scenery while enjoying magnificent panoramic views – that should make a golfer’s heart beat faster. Active visitors can pursue their golfing passion at one of Bergisches Land’s eight golf courses, some of which are known even beyond the region. The facilities continually challenge golfers because due to the region’s hilly character, the courses have altitude variations. However, flat courses are also available. Moreover, for bad weather days golfers use the world’s first natural grass indoor facility.
