Allee des Wandels

Highlight • Cycleway

The avenue of change connects the cities of Herten, Recklinghausen and Gelsenkirchen. Where coal and coke used to be transported for almost 100 years is now the pedestrian and cycle path. There is a lot to discover on the left and right of the path.

Wesel-Datteln Canal

Highlight • River

Very nice cycle path along the Weser-Datteln Canal with a great view. A short detour to the Lippe or Halterner See is worthwhile. There is also a Lippe ferry nearby.
