Here it is totally quiet and really nice. The only thing that somehow reminds you that you are in the pot is the Mintarder Ruhrtalbrücke over which runs the A52. It is the longest road bridge in Germany, which is constructed of steel. You see them from afar, until you finally drive under it.

Super long bridge. I found the bridge very impressive to look at from a certain distance from the cycle path, because the bridge is super long and slightly curved; it crosses the Ruhr and the cycle path.
