Every canal in Europe is easy to navigate. In Germany, they are under the control of the shipping authorities. There are so-called "commercial routes of the authority" along the canals everywhere. The König Ludwig route is nearby. The route that has been completed so far starts in the south at the "Herner Meer", the port and lock area on the Rhine-Herne Canal in Castrop-Rauxel. It goes from the Rhine-Herne Canal (in Herne) on a former railway line to Recklinghausen Suderwich to the König Ludwig mine. The railway line is to be extended to Oer-Erkenschwick.
