Landschaftspark Hoheward, Public park between Herten and Gelsenkirchen, Germany
The Landschaftspark Hoheward spans 750 hectares and features two former mining hills reaching heights of 110 and 70 meters respectively.
The park emerged in 2004 from the transformation of mining waste dumps into a recreational space, marking the industrial heritage of the Ruhr region.
The park includes a horizon observatory and a large sundial on its summit plateaus for astronomical observations and educational purposes.
Visitors can explore the park through a 10-kilometer ring promenade, a 6.5-kilometer balcony walkway, and multiple mountain biking trails.
The Dragon Bridge serves as an entrance point, connecting Recklinghausen's city park to the landscape park through an architectural structure.
