AlpacaCamping 2354
A parking spot at the edge of a field near Recklinghausen, with a wide view over the open landscape. It's not entirely level: you park in the farm entrance, and the edge onto the lawn is high—without a leveling ramp it'll be crooked. But in return, your view across the field is unobstructed, with morning mist hanging over it. The Rhein-Herne-Kanal is not far away, and the cycling path along the water runs from here right into the heart of the Ruhr area. If you stay, you'll have to accept the awkward approach.1
What AlpacaCamping writes
„Parking spot with great views right by the field.
However, you're parked directly in the farm entrance and the transition to the lawn is very steep.“

Sights in the area1
Halterner Stausee
The big bathing lake on the northern edge of the Ruhr region, with sandy beaches and a cycling loop; the area's go-to trip on hot days.
Rhein-Herne Canal cycle path
The flat towpath follows the canal right across the Ruhr, past old collieries and harbour basins; good for a day trip without a single climb.
Cappenberger See
A small lake in the green on the northern rim of the Ruhr region, popular for a quiet afternoon by the water; the calmer alternative to the busy Halterner Stausee.
