Hilden deserves its own day plan, combining a historic centre, an unusual museum and woodland walks. Start at the Alter Markt, then choose between culture and outdoor time. Its Rhineland setting allows further outings, for example to Düsseldorf. Your hotel choice should therefore reflect whether your appointments are in Hilden itself or elsewhere nearby.
