The Hoheward spoil tip is one of the most impressive spoil tips in the Ruhr region - not only because of its height, but also because of the spectacular panorama that can be enjoyed from the top. The direct route up to the slag heap is quite sporty. There are several access routes, most of which spiral upwards on tarmac or gravelled paths.

The Hoheward spoil tip is one of the most impressive spoil tips in the Ruhr region - not only because of its height, but also because of the spectacular panorama that can be enjoyed from the top.
The direct route up to the slag heap is quite sporty. There are several access routes, most of which spiral upwards on tarmac or gravelled paths.
The slag heap is embedded in the typical Ruhrpott scenery - a mixture of industrial charm, green recultivation and urban expanse.
At weekends, however, it can get quite crowded on the slag heap, as it is also popular with walkers, hikers and other cyclists. Early in the morning or during the week it is quieter. The neighbouring Emscher Landscape Park offers additional beautiful cycle routes that can be combined with the climb.

Die Halde Hoheward zählt zu den eindrucksvollsten Halden im Ruhrgebiet – nicht nur wegen ihrer Höhe, sondern auch wegen des spektakulären Panoramas, das sich oben bietet.
Die direkte Strecke auf die Halde ist durchaus sehr sportlich. Es gibt mehrere Zufahrtsmöglichkeiten, die meisten führen über asphaltierte oder geschotterte Wege spiralförmig nach oben.
Die Halde liegt eingebettet in die typische Ruhrpott-Kulisse – eine Mischung aus industriellem Charme, grüner Rekultivierung und urbaner Weite.
An Wochenenden kann es auf der Halde allerdings recht voll werden, da sie auch bei Spaziergängern, Wanderern und anderen Radfahrern beliebt ist. Früh morgens oder unter der Woche hat man mehr Ruhe. Der angrenzende Emscher Landschaftspark bietet zusätzliche schöne Radrouten, die man mit dem Anstieg kombinieren kann.
