Short, relaxed, and easily manageable with children. The family route is part of the "Day of the Climbs" and invites you to discover Kettwig at a leisurely pace. It leads you through Kettwig's old town, past historic buildings, small squares, and always close to the Ruhr River. Short distances, minimal

Here you'll discover the Kettwig district in the far southwest of Essen. Winding alleyways, lovingly preserved half-timbered houses

Here, you hike from Kettwig through the rural district of Schuir to the historic center of Werden. A diverse route that combines

Long, scenic, and varied. The professional route is the most challenging of the five tours on "Day of the Climbs." It follows the complete Kettwig Panorama Trail, which was opened in 2020, and truly lives up to its name.



The landscape along the route is particularly diverse. Forests, open fields, agricultural
