View of the Mintarder Ruhr Valley Bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

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.

View of the Mintard Ruhr Valley Bridge on the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

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.

Didn't visit it myself, but the people sitting in front of it made a very satisfied impression without exception.

Foot/cycle path along the Ruhr

Highlight • Cycleway

Beautiful cycle path, which runs very close to the Ruhr in parts. A few kilometers before the Mülheim water station, however, the cycle path is now closed to cyclists. A steep asphalt path then leads up to the road. Here you usually have to push the bike, which is very difficult for older or less fit cyclists. A sign saying "cyclists dismount" should perhaps be put up on the cycle path beforehand, as attempts to make the climb by bike will usually fail.
The route across the road to the water station or the promenade is easy to manage after turning several times thanks to good bicycle signage.

View of the former Kahlenberg Youth Hostel on the River Ruhr

Highlight • Viewpoint

The wide hiking trail runs directly between the calmly flowing Ruhr and the wide, renatured meadows. From here you have a nice view over the water and over to the Mülheim youth hostel. In the meadows you can also observe many different waterfowl and migratory birds throughout the year.
