Radverkehrsnetz NRW – Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis

A collection of 3 cycling routes.

Overview

About this collection

Official NRW routes in the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis: hilly Bergisches Land just east of Cologne, with plenty of forest, stream valleys, and wide views. The routes mix quiet side roads, farm and forest paths with short sections on busier roads and through pedestrian areas.

The surface varies – mostly asphalt, with gravel and some cobblestones. Trekking and gravel bikes are at home here; road bikes usually manage too, but on unpaved sections it's better to be cautious or choose an alternative. Typical for the area: noticeable climbs and fast descents – a bit of energy in the tank helps.

The routes are part of the signed NRW bike network; still, a map or GPX file is recommended. Ideal for after-work rides, weekend tours, or connections between towns in the district. Please be considerate in pedestrian zones and on shared paths.
