헤르텐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 자전거 공원

The highlight of this former mine dump are the two pyramid-like peaks separated by a gap. At night, the two impressive spotlights complete the image of a pyramid. The wide panoramic view and the diverse hiking options on the dump make it a great local recreation destination.

The Ruhr Regional Association has done a great job. This means you can walk around the entire Hoheward slag heap at the bottom and no longer have to go through the busy industrial area. Of course, only pedestrians and cyclists are allowed, no cars are allowed. There is a great playground in the middle. There are information boards along the entire 1.5km stretch.

I can only recommend the dumps, and you should also explore the mine site.

A combination of industrial area, industrial culture and the dark side of globalization. Truckers, mainly from Eastern Europe, have been standing on the site for years, camping in their trucks and waiting for the next load, which can sometimes be seriously delayed...

As part of the Green Infrastructure funding program, the Münster district government has made EU funding available for the AktivLinearPark project in the Hoheward Landscape Park. The project budget was around 4.4 million euros. Based on the Emscherland 2020 Integrated Action Plan, the Ruhr Regional Association (RVR) developed the AktivLinearPark together with the cities of Herten and Recklinghausen projects for the Hoheward Landscape Park. The AktivLinearPark was officially opened on October 30, 2022. https://www.rvr.ruhr/themen/tourismus-freizeit/aktivlinearpark/

Great facility, many children can let off steam here, whether climbing or riding on the wave slope, beautiful plants, whether intentional or wild. Plenty of seating for a short break on the 1.5 km stretch.

Admittedly, the approach to the 150m high heap is very strenuous and involves a few meters of altitude, some of which I had to push. But the view makes up for it and on the Halden plateau, which is equipped with a cycle route, there are also beautiful objects to visit with a sundial and horizon observatory, even visible from the A2.

One of the most beautiful industrial cultures for collieries in the Ruhr area.
