    In addition to a wonderful time travel through the history of coal mining, you can enjoy the beautiful nature and make a detour to an old castle ruins with fantastic views over the Ruhr and surrounding area. A very versatile hike.

      Stone-age historical walls on the way edge. When do you have that? What these stones have already experienced ...

        The castle ruins Hardenstein is always worth a visit. In the adjacent forest you will find many references to the history of coal mining in the Ruhr area. A wonderful journey through the beginnings of coal mining in the region. Some coal mines date back to the 17th century.
        Only a few meters from the castle ruins, you can cross the Ruhr on a ferry (also with bicycles and his dog) and continue from there on his tour. This service is completely free, but the operators are happy about a small donation.
        I can only recommend anyone who has not been there to make a detour there once. It is worth it!
