From Phoenixsee (formerly the Phoenix Ost steelworks, which was dismantled by the Chinese in 1999 and shipped to China in its entirety), along the Emscher and Westfalenpark to the BvB temple (view of the south …

How lucky I was today. Searched for sun with rain announced everywhere and found sun. The Rombergpark with the starting point parking lot showed me the beautiful remaining colors of autumn 💖

Today a city tour through Dortmund: Mostly away from the streets, it first went around the Phönixsee, then along the former Hoesch factory Phönix-West in the direction of Rombergpark. The park invites you to linger, beautiful garden design! Cafe Orchidee and the lake are on the way.

Maybe it was …

So I decided to do a door-to-door route, unfortunately very asphalt-heavy, but fairly quiet as there is not much traffic. Starting in the direction of the stadium. There, completely …
