Tips

Moin Weite Welt (Markus)

July 3, 2016

The Schurenbachhalde in the north of Essen is the largest in the city. Once you have found your way up, numerous partly nicely groomed single trails go down. On the large summit plateau there is an upright giant slab as a landmark that can be seen from afar.

The view from above shows you a panoramic view of the heart of the Ruhr area. In the south is Essen with the many high-rise buildings at the main train station, in which there are corporate headquarters. In the east you can see the white roof of the Arena Auf Schalke and in the north and west the chimneys of the extensive industrial areas of Essen, Bottrop and Gelsenkirchen smoke on both sides of the Rhine-Herne Canal. Up here a Pils (you have to bring your own, you can't buy anything here) at sunset is pure Ruhrpott romance!
