Schöttelheide Spoil Heap

"... The Schöttelheide heap is a mining waste heap in the Grafenwald district of Bottrop, not far from the Haniel heap. It is also sometimes called the Haniel-Nord heap. ..."

I wonder how the photo above of this highlight was taken when the dump has not yet been released by the RAG 🚫 😳 Komoot has also blocked the paths here. The dump was partly planted and now needs 1-3 years until nature 🌳 has secured everything and was able to spread further. You can still go up there early enough.

You should behave cautiously and prudently on the heap. The bird world is impressive. UNFORTUNATELY there are too many dog and horse owners who only use nature as a means to an end.
