    a really beautiful path that I didn't know about before. Here's a quote from Radrevier.Ruhr

    Quote: A rather lesser-known railway line cycle path runs in the south-east of Essen from Freisenbruch down into the Ruhr valley near Steele. The Veltenbahn is only around 2.4 kilometers long and runs through a beautiful forest area completely away from road traffic. The connection is part of the Essen mountain route, which runs from the Ruhr valley to Essen-Kray.

      The Veltenbahn is a short and rather little-used cycle route, a former railway line, but easy to ride.

        A lesser-known railway cycle path runs in southeast Essen from Freisenbruch down into the Ruhr Valley near Steele. The Veltenbahn is only about 2.4 kilometers long and runs through a beautiful forest area, completely off-road.
