Sortie rapide à vélo de Schwelm à Wuppertal

From here, you’ll pedal about 12 km mostly on quiet paths and some really peaceful roads—perfect for just zoning out and enjoying the green, hilly scenery.

The route is pretty gentle; you’ll climb a bit (about 140 meters up) but enjoy even more downhill as you approach Wuppertal. Almost all of the way is paved, mostly smooth asphalt, so it’s easy on your wheels. You’ll skirt through leafy stretches and might even catch glimpses of the Wupper River valley as you near your destination.

Wuppertal itself is famous for its unique Schwebebahn, a hanging monorail that swings above the city streets. The city is known for its hilly terrain and cultural hotspots. So whether you’re ending at a café or hopping on the Schwebebahn for a ride, this route gets you there in style—with a nice mix of small-town charm and city buzz. Happy cycling!
