仮面のバイクパーク・トップ20

Beautiful view and historical mining equipment

The bike park on the Halde Viktoria 3/4 in Lünen-Gahmen, a project that is considered unique for the eastern Ruhr area, has been officially opened. The facility, which is a joint project by various stakeholders, offers an official pump track, a dirt line and a trail run that is more than 500 meters long. Planning began in 2017, and the official opening took place in August 2020. The Käthe Kollwitz comprehensive school, which is in the immediate vicinity, has purchased mountain bikes and integrated cycling into lessons with a mountain bike group. The bike park is intended not only to attract the local bike scene, but also to support school educational offerings in the field of cycling.

The Kissinger Höhe is a waste dump from the former Heinrich-Robert mine. The waste dump has an area of 39 hectares and a maximum height of 55 m above the surrounding area or 112.3 m above sea level. Today the dump is owned by the Ruhr Regional Association and serves as a viewing point on the Route of Industrial Heritage.

It's worth driving up to the heap

A beautiful view when the weather is nice.

With an area of 140 hectares and a height of 148 meters above sea level, the Bergehalde offers over 40 km of hiking trails. The corridor park, the tree plateau and the grass field are waiting to be discovered. During the hike you are surrounded by a colorful landscape and blue herbs. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with a fabulous view. You can enjoy the view from the "Adener Höhe" of the Münsterland, the Sauerland, the eastern and western Ruhr area.

A nice playground for young and old

The Kissinger Höhe is ideal for those who love the great views, so it's a good idea to bring a pair of binoculars with you.
