VH-KDK Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 I have done several river trips, the last one being the Mississippi which was highly enjoyable. Having done the Rhine last year I decided that the Ruhr needed exploration. 1. Wikipedia for once was a little vague as to the exact source of the Ruhr but with a bit of searching on Google Earth I finally found it near Gronebach by the side of the L740 road. 2. After a quick change from the Paramotor to the R22 on the side of the road we continue heading north approaching Olsberg. 3. Now heading west at Nuttlar 4. The Ruhr is finally depicted here at Bestwig. 5. Now at EDKM Meschede Schuren for an overnight stop and a change of planes. 6. A bit of a cloudy morning as we leave in the Microleave. 7. The intersection of the A46 and L743 roads between Wennemen and Freienohl. 8. Approaching Arnsberg. 9. Still following the A46 at Neheim. 10. About to land at EDLA Arnsberg Menden for a rest and a change of horses. To be continued..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
