At this point you have a wide view, you can see Düsseldorf and the clouds of steam from the cooling towers of the lignite power stations in the Rhenish lignite district. The Solingen "Blade Path" leads along here.

The Niederaussem power plant (a base load power plant in Bergheim-Niederaussem (Rhein-Erft-Kreis) operated by RWE Power with lignite) is clearly visible, as is the Sophienhöhe (also known as Monte Sophia, which was created by the mining of lignite seams from the Hambach opencast mine). recultivated spoil heap near Jülich). 🧐
