The Balkhauser Weg connects Velbert-Leberhof with the RuhrtalRadweg between Hattingen and Bochum-Dahlhausen. It runs to the west below the Isenberg and is much less frequented by cars than the eastern connection between Hattinger and Leberhofer Strasse. Regardless of the direction in which you are driving - you definitely need strength for the climb! You have about 40 Hm from Kidneyhof to the Ruhr, 70m from the Ruhr to Kidneyhof.
