Broich-Speldorfer Wald, Forest park in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany

The Broich-Speldorfer Wald spans 39 square kilometers, connecting the cities of Duisburg, Mülheim an der Ruhr, Ratingen, and Düsseldorf through an extensive network of paths.

The area transformed in 1906 when the Broich-Speldorfer Wald- und Gartenstadt AG established residential zones, requiring land parcels of 12,500 square meters with limited construction allowances.

The forest contains multiple historic villas from the early 1900s, including Residenz Uhlenhorst and Streithof, which represent the industrial heritage of the Ruhr region.

Visitors can access multiple hiking routes, including the 28-kilometer Ruhrhöhenweg trail that connects Essen-Kettwig to Duisburg through the forest landscape.

The meandering Wambach stream flows through the forest from northeast to southwest, ending in an isolated lake called Entenfang, forming a protected natural area.
