A historic towpath along the Ruhr valley offering river views, tree-lined paths, old industrial and river-traffic relics — great for moody landscapes, seasonal color and intimate details. Best at golden hour or blue hour; mornings and weekdays are quieter. Easy access from Wichteltal with nearby street parking; no entry fee. Trails are mostly flat and walkable, camera-friendly year-round (spring foliage, autumn color, winter mist).
