About Emschergenossenschaft Lippeverband
Für heute und morgen.
Mit dem Generationenprojekt Emscher-Umbau haben wir ein wichtiges Versprechen eingelöst: eine ökologische Infrastruktur zu schaffen, die die Lebensqualität in der größten Industrie-Metropole Deutschlands sichert. Mit einem verbesserten Hochwasserschutz, sauberen Gewässern und naturnahen Ufern.
Die Entwicklung der Lippe zum schönsten Fluss in Nordrhein-Westfalen treiben wir mit dem Programm „Lebendige Lippe“ voran. Durch verbesserte Gewässerstrukturen und eine malerische Auenlandschaft sind neue Lebensräume entstanden: für Pflanzen und Tiere im und am Wasser.
Gemeinsam nehmen wir die Herausforderungen unserer Zeit an: Klimawandel, Energiewende und Digitalisierung sind nur einige davon. Deshalb denken wir weit über die reine Wasserwirtschaft hinaus. Für ein blaugrünes Leben am Fluss und in der Stadt.

River landscapes are always attractive to humans and animals and are, in the truest sense of the word, the origins of life. These landscapes are continually undergoing significant change, primarily due to us humans, which also alters them as habitats. This tour along the Lippe River brings such changes

Here, in the triangle formed by the Emscher, Lippe, and Rhine rivers, iron smelting began in the region in 1758, and the last coal was mined in 2018. And even after these 260 years, the transformation continues, as demonstrated on this tour, for example, by the renaturation of the Hahnenbach and Boye

Who knows the Emscher Valley? Even those who have lived in the region for a long time hesitate to ask this question. Compared to other river valleys, the gently sloping valley between Vest in the north and Castroper Höhe in the south is rather inconspicuous. Added to this are the strong human influences

Around Castrop-Rauxel, the Emscher conversion will create new river landscapes that you can enjoy on this tour. It leads over fields, hills of the Emscher quarry and partly narrow paths. This makes this tour a bit more demanding. But as is so often the case: a little effort is worthwhile and the muesli

October is luring us out again with a few golden days. Perhaps our Wheel of Fortune tours of the past few months will inspire you to go on a bike tour.
We look forward to seeing you pedaling with us again next year!

Here it is, autumn 🍁 well wrapped up, it's still a great time for a bike ride or two. And of course for a look back. Many thanks to everyone who spent a few happy hours in the saddle with us in 2024. We'll see you again on the Emsher in 2025! 👋

Its origins at the foot of the Teutoburg Forest and the nearby Haltern Hills do not change this fact: the Lippe is a lowland river. Typical for such rivers are floodplains and oxbows (separated former river bends), flooding of the surrounding area during high water, and a high groundwater level. Place
