Hiking

A must for every hiking and nature lover. Countless water birds cavort here in the summer months. Add to that this breathtaking view of the weir and the surrounding area.

Hiking

The Ruhrwehr is worth a stop, especially in the summer months, which can sometimes be a little longer. The sight of the "rapids", the water that finds its way, is surrounded by numerous aquatic plants, is too beautiful. There are also different types of waterfowl. But herons are also often seen here. Because of the vastness of the Ruhr valley, birds of prey also have their territory here.
