    Tips

    I recommend using the dump only with an all-terrain bike. The up / downhill consists partly of coarse gravel and rubble. The rain has done the rest over the years. With a "classic" city bike, I would therefore recommend the Hoheward dump, as there is an asphalt up / downhill section there.

      Access to the Rungenberg dump is currently (28.05.21) closed to pedestrians and cyclists, unless you make your way through the bushes.

        The almost 70-meter-high slag heap is located north of the A2 motorway in the Gelsenkirchen-Buer district. From the "night signs" on the summit, the Rungenberg slag heap offers an impressive view of the Ruhr area.
        Connected to the cycle path system (Hugotrasse), not far away is the railway guard's house at Alfred-Konter-Platz, as well as the Schüngelberg settlement and, in the northern area, the district park with the green laboratory, which covers various subject areas for extracurricular lessons.

          The Rungenberg dump together with the adjacent “Biomass Park” is larger than the Gruga in Essen and offers a wide range of leisure activities. So you can do a lot of altitude, enjoy a wonderful panoramic view over the eastern Ruhr area to the Rhine, and learn a lot about the history of the location. This, too, is another successful example of the conversion of former industrial areas into local recreation areas ...

            An absolute must!
            From there you have a really great view over northern Gelsenkirchen.
            I was there in May 2022 and it was a superbly developed ramp up to the slag heap.
            "Brake waves" were/are installed across the path so that the "broomed pigs" cannot crash down the path. 😁

              The Rungenberg dump is located directly on Hugotrasse.
