    Directly on the Datteler sea. Very nice for cycling and hiking 👍

      This is the southernmost of the four historic bridges on the old Dortmund Ems Canal between Datteln and Olfen. All four historic bridges were designed under the direction of the Royal Prussian Chief Building Director Karl Hinckeldeyn.
      The sides of the bridge are clad with Ruhr sandstone.

        Well, not “directly”, but close by. On the other side of the underpass there is a good small parking lot for hikers.
        You can only get to the bridge - i.e. to the "Old Ride" - via very steep stairs that are completely unsuitable for cycling!
