  • DW Travel Guide Lukas Stege shows you the famous suspension railway in Wuppertal, a spectacular landmark in this city in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
    Wuppertal was once the center of the German textile industry. And philosopher Friedrich Engels, known as one of the founders of Marxism, lived here. In the video you’ll find out why the Engels monument is very popular with Chinese tourists.
    Lukas’s climbing session in the hilly Bergisches Land region around Wuppertal is a real highlight. In spite of his fear of heights, he tries to climb up Müngstener Brücke, Germany’s highest railway bridge. It’s breathtaking!

    As someone who's scared of heights, it was really nice to see you be so proud of yourself even though you didn't make it to the highest point of the bridge. Well done for giving it a go, you did so well! I am looking forward to visiting Wuppertal (but won't be attempting the bridge!)

    I so understand the reaction of Lukas to the bridge. I have taught myself over the years to overcome my own fears, and have done various things that I could not, at the time, believe I'd achieved. Then I went to the coast of Wales... There were two routes back to the car, along the inland path we had already used, or the cliff path. I stupidly thought that I could cope with the cliff path. I walked about 0.5km before I froze in terror. I could not move forward or go back, and as the seconds passed by I felt a scream building up deep inside. My friend eventually held tightly on to me and, with my eyes shut, he guided me to the end of the path...I totally refused to go back, which somehow felt worse than the longer walk forwards, the unknown felt safer than the known!
    Well done Lukas for what you achieved. You should be proud of yourself.

Die Fahrt an sich ist tatsächlich angenehmer und weniger schaukelnd als eine Busfahrt und die Kurven sind angenehmer als in einem Zug da sich der Wagen mehr neigt. Wenn es bei der Frage darum geht ob einem schlecht darin wird muss ich sagen das ich in 40 Jahren nie jemand gesehen habe der alleine wegen der Bewegung Probleme bekommt.

      It used to be quite noisy back in the 80/90, because it was old. But in the 2000s the whole track got replaced piece by piece over a 10 year stretch. In the 2010 new wagons/trains where introduced (build in Valencia). The new engines are super quite, just a whisper. But before that yeah, annoying, metal on metal sounds, especially when the train drove the curves.
