Here you roll over the Ruhr bridge in Essen Kettwig. Out of the city you are super fast in the countryside. The city of Kettwig is really worth a stop. Old half-timbered houses, winding streets and all sorts of opportunities to stop in any case to take a break. Food Kettwig is definitely one of the most beautiful cities in the pot!

Hiking

Essen's newest district was only incorporated in 1975 – and still feels surprisingly authentic. Half-timbered houses from the 17th to 19th centuries characterize the area, nestled among winding alleyways. If you look closely, you'll discover lovingly crafted Rococo and Empire doors on many of the houses.
