    This section is simply beautiful with the lock keeper's house and its beautifully located beer garden, which offers a view of the other wooded bank of the Ruhr with the Hardenstein castle ruins and the museum train route.
    If you do your research and choose the right date, you can witness a huge spectacle a little further down the river: the dragon boat race with its rowers in spectacular costumes.

      Walking along the Ruhr is simply fantastic.

        The Ruhr is a 219.3 km long tributary of the Rhine. The source is near Winterberg and the confluence is at Duisburg-Ruhrort in the Rhine
