Those who love altitude will enjoy the 278 steps to the Deusenberg slag heap. A sporting challenge with guaranteed rewards. At the top, an impressive panoramic view of Dortmund, all the way to Signal Iduna Park and the TV tower, awaits. The former landfill has been transformed into a green oasis with a mountain bike arena, walking trails, and a paragliding launch site.

The relatively moderate climb to the plateau of the Deusenberg spoil heap is worthwhile. A magnificent view is the reward.

The climb is short, the reward is the view of Dortmund 😍

Be careful in rainy weather! Very muddy.

The Deusenberg dump in Dortmund is a fascinating example of the transformation of former industrial and waste landfill areas into valuable leisure and recreation areas. Originally used as a landfill, the Deusenberg was opened to the public after extensive renovation work, including sealing and reforestation with around 150,000 trees. Today the Deusenberg is a popular destination not only because of its impressive view over the Ruhr area, but also as the location of the EDG Mountain Bike Arena, which is aimed at hobby riders of all ages. The summit of the heap, which is around 120 meters above sea level and around 55 meters above the surrounding landscape, can be reached via a 137 meter long staircase or ramp. The dump offers a wide view over Dortmund and the city's important landmarks. The special sights include the St. Reinoldi Church, the RWE Tower, the Dortmunder U, the Westfalenstadion and the television tower in Westfalenpark​​. The Mountain Bike Arena on the Deusenberg was set up by Disposal Dortmund GmbH (EDG) and offers various trails and a special obstacle course for mountain bikers. Despite the focus on beginners and children, the area offers sufficient opportunities for a variety of driving techniques and is freely accessible. The photovoltaic system on the Deusenberg is another highlight. It is one of the largest systems in the Ruhr area and, with its approximately 13,000 modules, covers the electricity needs of around 1,000 households. This sustainable energy production underlines the ecological value of the area. Although the Deusenberg originally served as a garbage dump, it has developed into an attractive place for leisure activities and sports. The Deusenberg dump is an example of how industrially used areas can be converted into valuable recreational areas that are of interest to both the local population and visitors.

Can also be damp at times.

278 steps. Oof! But the distances are even and small, so it actually works quite well

The slag heap is worth it. From here you can see how the landscape changes. In the south you can see Dortmund with the foothills of the Sauerland and to the north you can see how it becomes increasingly flatter towards the Münsterland.
