Beautifully made gabion. In the beginning, after the completion of the cycle path, you could still see towards Kamen through the vegetation. Meanwhile, however, it has become so lush that you only see a beautiful green wall of vegetation. A nice place for a break at the Seseke.

Lippe meadows in Lünen

Very nice and shady path through the Lippeauen in Lünen. With a little luck, the seating is free and invites you to take a break.

View of Marina Rünthe and Heil Power Plant

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Heil power plant, also known as the Bergkamen power plant, is located in the Heil district of Bergkamen on the Datteln-Hamm Canal. It is a hard coal power plant that is operated jointly by STEAG GmbH and RWE Power AG. Construction of the power plant began in the late 1970s and it was commissioned in 1981. The power plant has an output of 750 megawatts and produces around 3.7 billion kilowatt hours of electricity and district heating for the city of Bergkamen every year.

The Heil power plant is characterized by its tall chimney of almost 290 meters, which is visible from the Westphalian marina Marina Rünthe. Originally, the hard coal was transported directly from the neighboring Monopol mine to the power plant via a conveyor belt. Today, coal is delivered via the plant's own port on the Datteln-Hamm Canal.

In recent years, there have been plans to shut down the power plant. It was originally scheduled to be taken off the grid in 2022, but due to the energy crisis and to ensure the power supply, operations were temporarily extended. The power plant is planned to continue operating until at least spring 2024.

Since we were keen to experiment, we unfortunately lost our way to a huge meadow. Since the way back was not an option for us, we had to cross a stream to the railway embankment through bushes and shrubs and then push our bikes ankle-deep through mud. Please don't follow the tour like this, it's a private property.
