Solingen 주요 관광지
💡 Start at the villa (now a community centre) and follow the yellow markers uphill. The trail loops back in 45 minutes. The villa's public toilets are clean and open during weekday office hours.
💡 Check the smithy demonstrations on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2pm – real blacksmiths shaping steel, no booking needed.
💡 Visit during rhododendron bloom in May. Free guided tours happen every second Saturday at 11am – just show up at the entrance hut.
💡 Bring your own food – the on-site kiosk is overpriced. For the best view, walk the trail up the hill behind the park towards 'Blick auf die Brücke' sign.
💡 Take the cable car (Schwebefähre) from Burg station across the river for a cheap thrill at €2.50 each way. The castle's cafe sells decent Apfelstrudel.
