Beautiful and interesting footpath and cycle path.
On the right bank of the Rhine is the huge TKS area and on the left bank is the Lower Rhine, agriculturally dominated recreation area.

The most beautiful way to cross the Rhine near Duisburg!
Take a quick coffee break with cake in Orsoy and then head over to Alt Walsum.
