The new bridge "Jump over the Emscher" leads over the Rhine-Herne Canal and crosses the Emscher twice. Pedestrians and cyclists can use it together over a length of around 412m and a width of 2.5m.

Highlight • Rest Area

Already worth seeing with the renatured Emscher! But only when the bridge "Jump over the Emscher" is completed will it become a real highlight!!! 🤩

Emscher Floodplain Park

Highlight • Natural

It is always nice to cycle through the green park in the Emscher Valley. Where brown water once flowed, a beautiful floodplain area has now been created around the renaturalized Emscher.

Dattelner Lake

2 canals meet... This is what happens here, and it's nice to look at, but it's particularly interesting because of the nearby locks

Since the Emscher cycle path was closed in many places, we had to end too much on the road.
