The Emscher cycle path is an attractive long-distance cycle path that runs along the Emscher in the Ruhr area. It offers a combination of nature experiences and industrial cultural sights along its route. The path leads through the region's diverse landscape and is a symbol of the structural change from an industrial to a recreational area. On this route, cyclists can experience the renaturation of the Emscher and the transformation of the former sewer into a lively river landscape. The cycle path connects different cities and offers insights into the industrial past and the nature of the Ruhr area.
