Home of the Lippe pirates
A site on the Lippe near Dorsten, directly on the Römer-Lippe-Radweg. The site itself rents out canoes. In the mornings, the first cyclists roll by, after that you mainly hear the river. It's 3.5 kilometers to the town center, and the Zeche Leopold is part of the region's industrial heritage. For gray days, there's the leisure pool and ice rink. To Bottrop, where the tetrahedron stands on the spoil heap, is about twelve kilometers. The Moviepark is in the same direction.1

Sights in the area1
Tetraeder Bottrop
A walkable steel pyramid on a slag heap in Bottrop, about twelve kilometres away; from the top you see half the Ruhr area, and the climb takes under half an hour.
Halde Haniel
Slag heap near Bottrop with a Stations-of-the-Cross path and an open-air stage on top; a late-afternoon destination, when the sun stands over the cooling towers.
Halterner Stausee
Reservoir in the northern Ruhr area with a sandy shore and a path around it; the place to swim on days when the indoor pool is too crowded.
