The Datteln waterway cross, also known as the Datteln canal cross, is a waterway cross near the North Rhine-Westphalian city of Datteln, which connects the canals of the West German canal network. This is also where various water authorities, companies and associations are based. The prominence of the property as the largest canal junction in Europe can obviously be attributed to the then Mayor of Datteln, Horst Niggemeier, who also launched the Datteln Canal Festival in 1969.

There is no more transshipment at the Datteln port, it is a resting and base port with services (waste oil disposal, drinking water supply, etc.). There is a sport boat yard, the boats of the naval comradeship and the reservists' association, as well as boathouses for the water sports clubs.

In addition to the waterways, the paved paths along the canal are popular routes for cyclists and walkers. Some of them run on old towpaths.

You can cycle along the Dortmund-Ems Canal Route from the Dattelner Meer to the North Sea.
