A scenic gem in Dreick Dortmund - Bochum -Witten. Narrow meadow valley with a nice, but muddy path on the right bank / edge of forest. In the forest clear traces of earlier opencast mines. Today conservation area.

Im Aar Woods and Quarry

Highlight • Forest

The small forest "Im Aar" shows great diversity in a small area, rocky subsoil, Siefen / Bachlauf with bridge and a small quarry offer surprising variety in the landscape. WW Rhombus Nine

Haselbecke Stream and Rocky Cliffs

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

A small section of the Neanderlandsteig that leads along the Haselbeck. Unfortunately, except for the small "bridge section" always fenced. From here you can look across meadows to the birch forests on the other side.
