    Hiking

    Unfortunately, I didn't count the steps, but there were quite a few to get from the Ewald Colliery to the slag heap plateau. There must be at least 300 steps, which can take your breath away, before you can enjoy the breathtaking panorama of the Ruhr region from the slag heap plateau.

    At the foot of the slag heap sits the Ewald mine. There are restaurants and plenty to explore.
    The Hoheward slag heap is a true highlight of the slag heap, offering the best views over the Ruhr region.
