Bottrop

Bottrop sits in the Ruhr Valley with mostly flat industrial terrain — the Gravelgrinder-Tecklenburger Höhen gravel race heads south into rolling farmland and forest, while road cyclists target the Dinslakener Nispa RTF's 151km loop through the region. Running is canal-based and parkland-focused around the city centre; the Megamarsch Ruhrgebiet 50km night hike is a regional endurance event that draws from this area's walking culture.
