Overall rating:
Slag Heap Haniel is the highest elevation in the Ruhr region. It consists of two parts: the southern part has been turned into a landscape park, while the northern one continues to be used by Prosper Haniel Coal Mine. From the top there is a view of the entire Ruhr region. On a warm summer evening this is an excellent place to meet the sunset.

Along the path to the summit there are stations of the Christ Carrying the Cross. At the end point of the route stands a huge cross, that was created in 1987 in honor of Pope John Paul II's visit to the Ruhr region.

At the very top the Spanish artist Augustín Ibarrola made an installation of hundreds of colored railway sleepers, called "Totems".
