    Tips

    In this area, the Emscher River, which once flowed in a straight channel, was renaturalized, and spacious retention basins were created.

    From the newly constructed, elevated Emscher cycle path, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Emscher River as it now meanders along.

    It's astonishing how quickly nature is reclaiming the terrain. While the area was initially gray and muddy, the landscape is now a green river landscape with grasses, reeds, purple loosestrife, butterflies, and dragonflies.

    The numerous herons indicate a good fish population here.
