Tips

Cycling

Very nice resting place with a beautiful view over the Ruhr valley. Very green in summer, so the view is somewhat limited. The path is easy to ride and can be well used to get onto the RS1 cycle superhighway from Saarn at the Camera Obscura.

Now that the trees are fully "leafed" again, the view is not quite as good. But in autumn/winter the view is really great. Always good for a short break, as there are also benches and bins available.

Just sit down, relax and enjoy the beautiful view.
