Nordbahntrasse - Dorp entrance
Description
A former railway line running on a terrace above the valley to the North of the city. The line closed in 1991 and has since been converted into a walking and cycling trail - taking advantage of the flatness of the railway line. All of the tunnels along the line have been internally lit and a wide pedestrian and separate cycle path is provided. Some of the infrastructure of the stations have also survived. This entrance is at the start of the most interesting section with several tunnels and viaducts. Its about 8.4Km from Dorp to the end of this section at Wichlinghauser station, where the Schwarzbachtrasse starts that takes you back down towards Oberbarmen
