The Borbecker Mühlenbach was an open sewer until 2010 (in the Ruhr area we call this “Köttelbecke”). After the renaturation, it is once again a natural, clean watercourse.

A milestone for the clean Emscher. An already renatured brook in the Emscherland.
Congratulations to the Emschergenossenschaft.

Nice path on the "old Köttelbecke", if you follow the stream uphill, a detour to the Kesselbach / Nachtigallental is also worthwhile
