Hückeswagen: Holiday Apartments and Holiday Homes

Culture

The old town tour in Hückeswagen begins at Wilhelmsplatz and is described as accessible for wheelchair users. With an intensive visit, it takes around two hours, including the local history museum located in the former palas in the east wing of the castle; the walking time alone is around one hour. Construction of the castle began around 1138.

Nature

Historic trails connect Hückeswagen with the Wuppervorsperre and the Bevertalsperre reservoirs. The Water Trail uses information boards to explain the importance of water, reservoirs, and electricity generation. The WupperVielfalt project interprets species, habitats, and historical elements in the Wupper floodplain landscape. The project's discovery points extend along the Wupper floodplains from Marienheide via Wipperfürth and Hückeswagen to Radevormwald.

Boats can be rented at the Bevertalsperre reservoir. The Wasserquintett long-distance hiking trail is around 108 kilometers long and divided into seven stages. The fourth stage of the 244-kilometer Bergischer Panoramasteig is 22 kilometers long and passes through Hückeswagen. Walks and bike rides are possible on the trails around the Bevertalsperre reservoir.

Cycling

The Wasserquintett railway trail follows the former Wippertalbahn railway line for around 28 kilometers and has predominantly gentle inclines. The aqualon loop is integrated into the Radregion Rheinland cycling network and is additionally marked with its own blue symbol.
