Rhine kilometer 800 - Götterswickerhamm

Highlight • River

Here you can relax; there's a meadow along the riverbank, and a beer garden and children's playground are within walking distance.
The mature trees provide shade and some protection from wind and weather.

Blue Bridge over the Emscher with a view of the new Emscher mouth

Highlight • Bridge

The Emscher has received a “natural” inflow to the Rhine. Nature will certainly take a lot back. The picture is from April 2023.

Walsum Rhine Meadows Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural

Especially in good weather and just before sunset (but also otherwise) highly recommended! Under certain circumstances, depending on the direction of travel, the headwind should not be underestimated when you are on the top of the dike.

HOAG Rail Trail

Highlight • Cycleway

That's what I call sensible recultivation: An old railway line from the colliery traffic of the time was converted into a very recommendable cycle path. There are also plenty of opportunities to take a break with a beautiful panorama.
