    Tips

    December 11, 2022

    "In Gerresheim, after passing the impressively large industrial wasteland of the former Gerresheim glassworks and the glassmakers' quarter, we come across the "Yellow Mountains" on Quadenhofstrasse, the third highlight of the day. Although I'm familiar with these Gerresheim clay-sand mountains from my early days, I've never climbed them. All that's clearly visible is a "yellow" cliff edge, testifying to the fragile nature of the hill range; the short climb leads imposingly steeply uphill at a 14% gradient; the views toward Düsseldorf are truly impressive.

    The sun is low, the slanting light illuminates the city.

    Crazy, isn't it? It was supposed to rain today, they said.

    Such luck with the weather!

    Well, we can't always be lucky: the only bench—and what a bench—on top is occupied. Well, have fun looking, we'll move on."

        Magnificent view over the entire city. A bench invites you to linger. Perfect place for a small snack.
