Small tent by the mini pond (Campspace 5297)
A small campsite near Baldeneysee lake by Essen, right next to the old stone cottage. The host doesn't reveal much: space for a tent, all to yourself, plus animals around the house. No activities, no neighbors. In the morning you hear them before you see them. Baldeneysee, the dammed-up Ruhr in the Ruhr Valley, is not far away — sailing boats along the shore, an excursion steamer in between. In the evening there's just the meadow, and the cottage sits quietly in the darkness.1

Sights in the area1
Baldeneysee
The Baldeneysee dams the river Ruhr in the south of Essen; a shore path circles it for cycling and walking, plus sailboats and a pleasure steamer. The local escape when the city gets too hot.
Zeche Zollverein
Zeche Zollverein — the shut-down coal mine in the north of Essen, now a Unesco World Heritage site with a museum and industrial park. The rainy-day classic of the Ruhr.
Villa Hügel
Villa Hügel — the former home of the Krupp family above the Baldeneysee, set in a wide park; an afternoon between exhibition and lakeside view.
