Hiking

On the left bank of Lake Kemnader, Witten-Herbede nestles in a bend in the Ruhr, which is accompanied by the Ruhr Valley Railway and the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path. The Ruhr splits north of the historic town center and forms a small island called the Dog Island.

Here you can linger wonderfully. Another tip is a visit to the royal lock keeper's house, where you can enjoy the wonderful Ruhr with coffee and cake

Hiking

The Royal Lock Keeper's House opposite the Hardenstein castle ruins is the flagship of Ruhr Valley gastronomy. The historic half-timbered house from 1835 is located on the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path. See: wabembh.de/projekte/bewirten-und-erleben/koenigliches-schleusenwaerterhaus.html
