    This ascent looks a bit like a forest path, but you come straight out of the city and are back in a pretty colliery settlement, right by the old Hammerkopf tower at shaft 3 of the Erin colliery. The effort is rewarded several times - especially if you drive a few meters further with a great view to the north of the Münsterland.

    To add to Nik Wys's comment: If you drive a little further, you'll come to the Schwerin slag heap. Since the slag heap itself is already located atop Schweriner Berg and continues up a few meters, you have a magnificent panoramic view not only of the Münsterland region, but also of Dortmund, Bochum, and the Ruhr area itself.
    The Schwerin slag heap is listed as a highlight on Komoot.

    Beautiful old mine shaft.
    Beautifully lit in the evenings, and in winter, a green laser beam shines from there toward the Erin Colliery winding tower.
