View of Wetter (Ruhr) and Lake Harkortsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

One should not confuse the Harkortsee with the Stallion Lake here ... The first one

Both lakes but only a "stone's throw" away from each other.

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.

Ruhr Viaduct at Harkort Lake

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge is a great photo opportunity. You feel like you've gone back in time. If a steam locomotive were to roll over it, the time jump would be perfect. ;)

Hengsteysee and Kaiser Wilhelm Monument (Hohensyburg)

Highlight • Lake

Hengsteysee and Harkortsee belong together like brother and sister. Both are former water bodies used by heavy industry that have been converted into well-used recreational waters with good water quality …
