On this route of the Ruhrtalradweg you can really enjoy nature. The route leads through the vast meadows of the Ruhr, which are lined with countless trees. Simply gorgeous.

Some nutrias live in the Ruhrauen nature reserve, which sometimes come to the shore to look for food. Please do not feed!

Elbschetalbahn Railway Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

I could imagine such a structure would be unaffordable these days, given the construction costs. It's crazy, but anyone with a soft spot for it will get their money's worth. It's flat, I know...

A particularly beautiful place on a very beautiful section of the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path. The old railway bridge and the tunnels as well as the view of the Ruhr meadows are worth a look even after the 100th time.

I bought the farm shop up there in Bommern. Grilled goods etc. They then gave me ice cube bags so that I could get the stuff home safely. It worked out well. Cheers! It was fun again!!!

I think you drove partly this way yesterday, just continued. It was also quite warm. You only really notice it when you calm down.
