It's worth getting off your bike here and listening to the rushing of the Ruhr for a while. Two small but wide steps ensure that the water of the Ruhr falls from one basin to the next at this point. The waterfalls offer a beautiful backdrop for a short rest.

Kupferdreh railroad bridge over the Ruhr

Highlight • Bridge

The predecessor of today's bridge was opened in 1872 as part of the "Lower Ruhr Valley Railway". Blown up by the German Wehrmacht in 1945, it was then rebuilt as a single track. Since 1984 it has been a footpath and cycle path that connects the districts of Kupferdreh and Heisingen.

Ruhr Floodplains in Steele

Highlight • River

A beautiful piece of the Ruhr valley cycle path. A dream, especially at dusk and when the weather is good. The mix of Ruhr nature, urban flair and old railway bridges is quite unique. Only one thing will rarely happen to you here: that you enjoy this beautiful bike path alone 🤓.

Rest in the middle of the bridge ... That's it on the benches built in there.

Thanks to the positive weather forecast - overcast, but at least dry 👍🏻🙂 - we set off at midday (with the 🚗) to Werden on the Ruhr to meet the 3 early starters from Mettmann and cycle a little further along the Ruhr with five of us.
Starting at the LUJO - Seecafé in Werden, we took a leisurely ride …

Flat mountain bike ride, mostly along the water. Baldeney/Kemnade and Ümmingersee (The idea of a gravel bike is still growing...🤔😅)
No photos, as the film is still full from the vacation and still needs to be developed😅.
