    The Wesel Datteln Canal has its roots in coal mining: it was inaugurated in 1930 and served primarily as a waterway for mining. The canal connects the Dortmund-Ems-Kanal at Datteln with the Rhine. Along the entire canal runs a farm road, which is mainly used as a bike and footpath. On the banks there are a few campsites, also the channel is used in the summer for swimming, even if this is officially prohibited.

    Nice track, the somewhat rough gravel is now well worn again.
