Herdecke Promenade on the Ruhr River

Highlight • River

There is always something to see on the promenade. Canadian geese, mallards, cormorants, canoeists, railway viaducts... If you like, you can enjoy the gastronomic offerings.

An imposing building on the edge of the city center of Herdecke. The bridge leads the tracks over the Ruhr and Harkortsee at a height of over 30 meters. The building is 313 meters long.

Great view of the Ruhr Viaduct in Herdecke. With a length of 313 m and 12 semi-circular arches of 20 m each, the viaduct spans the valley.
