The Schurenbachhalde is not a classic climb in the sense of long serpentines or steep ramps, but it does have its charm - especially for those who want to combine urban scenery with sporting activity in the Ruhr region.
The ascent usually starts from the northern foot of the slag heap, either via the official main path or one of the smaller, unpaved alternative routes. There is no tarmac here, as the path is mostly gravelled or consists of packed earth. In dry conditions it can be ridden on without any problems, but in wet conditions it quickly becomes slippery. A gravel bike or MTB is the better choice here.
Once you reach the top, you are rewarded with an impressive view over the Ruhr region. The huge steel sculpture "Bramme für das Ruhrgebiet" marks the highest point and provides a magnificent panorama.
Die Schurenbachhalde ist kein klassischer Anstieg im Sinne langer Serpentinen oder steiler Rampen, aber sie hat ihren Reiz – besonders für alle, die im Ruhrgebiet urbane Landschaft mit sportlicher Aktivität verbinden wollen.
Der Aufstieg beginnt meist vom nördlichen Fuß der Halde, entweder über den offiziellen Hauptweg oder eine der kleineren, unbefestigten Alternativrouten. Asphalt findet man hier nicht, der Weg ist größtenteils geschottert oder besteht aus festgefahrenem Erdweg. Bei trockenen Bedingungen problemlos befahrbar, aber bei Nässe wird es schnell rutschig. Ein Gravel- oder MTB ist hier die bessere Wahl.
Oben angekommen wird man mit einem beeindruckenden Blick über das Ruhrgebiet belohnt. Die riesige Stahlskulptur "Bramme für das Ruhrgebiet" markiert den höchsten Punkt und sorgt für ein großartiges Panorama.
