In my opinion, Halde Haus Aden 2 is more suitable for mountain bikes, given the condition and gradient of the paths - I would not recommend the climb with a trekking bike.

To the north of the Minister Achenbach mine site with the Colani UFO, a striking and prominent waste dump in a geometric cone shape was piled up. In addition to the official name based on the neighboring Shaft IV, the mountain is known locally primarily under the name Tockhausen dump. Tockhausen itself is a very small settlement with two properties, a local recreation area with a swimming pool, sports fields and this dump on the border with Waltrop and not far from the Datteln-Hamm canal. In front of the dump, there was apparently a clay pit from a brickworks, which was connected to it by a railway. The pit was filled with waste material from Shaft IV and became a dump. The waste dump has a surface area of around 12 hectares. The highest point is a fiery 112 meters above sea level. Since the surrounding terrain is inclined, the relative height fluctuates between 37 and 56 meters above the surrounding area. This means that it towers over the spoil heap at the pit I / II by a few meters. Source: https://www.ruhrgebiet-industriekultur.de/zeche-minister-achenbach/

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.

Anyone who uses all routes will achieve an impressive mileage.

Until 1990, the dump was not open to the public. That changed on May 11, when Mayor Denkert officially released the heap.

The heap section is currently overgrown and has been closed. We pushed the bikes and cleared the way for us. Very steep route and unpaved. Beautiful view and vision at the top.

A nice playground for young and old

At 105 meters above sea level, the Tockhausen tailings dump is not the highest in the area. But it offers a very nice view. A viewing highlight to the south is the converted winding tower with the Colaniei. To the north there is a good view of the Lünen power plant on the Datteln-Hamm Canal.
