Lippe Weir in Werne
Highlight • Monument
Unfortunately, this is only possible to a limited extent because not all paths are near the shore.
But through bridges it is always possible to catch a glimpse of them.
The weir system is particularly suitable for a short rest.

View of Marina Rünthe and Heil Power Plant
Highlight • Viewpoint
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.
