View of the north shore of Lake Kemnade

Highlight • Viewpoint

In this section, the footpath, the inline skating path and the cycle path are separated. The cycle path is about six meters higher. It is noisy due to the adjacent A43 motorway, but the view from this point is excellent.

RS1 Cycle Route – Mülheim Section

Highlight • Cycleway

The wait was definitely worth it. The new section is great to cycle on. They even thought of lighting. That's so annoying on other bike paths: pitch black in winter. ☹️

Highlight • Viewpoint

Essen Kettwig is beautifully situated on the Ruhr with a great cycle path along the Ruhr. The old town is also worth seeing.

Kupferdreh railroad bridge over the Ruhr

Highlight • Bridge

The predecessor of today's bridge was opened in 1872 as part of the "Lower Ruhr Valley Railway". Blown up by the German Wehrmacht in 1945, it was then rebuilt as a single track. Since 1984 it has been a footpath and cycle path that connects the districts of Kupferdreh and Heisingen.

Rest in the middle of the bridge ... That's it on the benches built in there.

Ruhr Waterfalls at Hattingen

Highlight • Waterfall

It's worth getting off your bike here and listening to the rushing of the Ruhr for a while. Two small but wide steps ensure that the water of the Ruhr falls from one basin to the next at this point. The waterfalls offer a beautiful backdrop for a short rest.
