    Hiking

    Quarry Mitzwinkel in Essen-Kettwig
    Geostopp 12 of the GeoRoute Ruhr


    Ruhrtalstraße (branch at the Kattenturm), Essen (access)
    The quarry is located on the right bank of the Ruhr between Essen Werden and Essen Kettwig. From the S-Bahn station "Essen Kettwig" follow the Ruhrtalstraße for about 600 meters in the direction of Werden. At the bus stop "Kattenturm", at the ruin Kattenturm, a hiking trail branches off to the left. It turns right after about 50 meters and from there it goes 300 meters uphill to the quarry.

    Hiking

    Depending on the season, the view from this vantage point is completely overgrown.

    Beautiful vantage point down into the wide Ruhr valley. 2 banks invite you to take a break.
