    The Pleßbachweg is a mining hiking trail in the Pleßbach/Hammertal valley in Niedersprockhövel. It connects various historical mining sites from the early days of coal mining. There were coal seams here that reached to the surface. If you are looking for the oldest evidence of the history of Ruhr mining, you have come to the right place.

      The Pleßbach has its name after the Pleßmann farm in the lower Hammertal, through whose meadows it flowed.

        Really great to walk, the paths around the old coal lines are beautiful and very interesting.
