The Alte Zechenbahn is a beautiful connection from Oer-Erkenschwick to the Honermann settlement near Marl-Sinsen. The route is well developed and therefore accessible to everyone. Information signs and some mining exhibits line the way. Otherwise pure nature. Simply to enjoy. Have fun!

It's wonderful on the "Alte Zechenbahn". The rest area at the orchard is really great and a little further is the organic station.
