The mill line rises in the south of the North Rhine-Westphalian town of Holzwickede and runs in a southeasterly direction. It flows past the Hengsen reservoir towards the southwest and receives a tributary from the Gehrenbach on the right. After 9.8 km, the mill line flows into the Ruhr near Schwerte.

The mill line emerged from one of the two arms of the Ruhr that flowed through the floodplain until 1719. This year the Ruhr overflowed its banks and shifted its course to the south. In order to continue supplying the water mill, the remaining arm was narrowed down. In the 1950s, the course was straightened and deepened, and later additional walls were built to protect against flooding. In 1998 the area was placed under nature conservation. Today the mill line is only poorly maintained, so that many aquatic plants have emerged again and various animal species have become native to the stream system.

A super idyllic spot can be found here at the bridge where the Mühlenstrang flows into the Ruhr.
Of course there is a bench with a view and a great rest area
