    From the sewer of the Ruhr area, the Emscher has been transformed into an urban river that once again provides a habitat for plants and animals.

    The stormwater retention basin and the Emscher floodplains are wonderful for both humans and animals.

    There are always plenty of birdwatching opportunities there, and the trails are perfect for cycling and hiking.

    Unfortunately, it's far too often described as a HL, which is all the same.

    But it's really beautiful here.
