"Essen Prospects"

If you want to get a wonderful view of the entire Baldeneysee, come to the viewpoint Korte Klippe in the district of Heisingen, which can only be reached on foot or by bicycle. It was named after the Essen horticultural director Rudolf Korte, to whom a memorial stone was dedicated. The cliff is located not far from the Schellenberg hunting lodge at an altitude of about 144 meters above sea level. Below the steep slope runs the BaldeneySteig, a circular hiking trail that leads once around the heights of Lake Baldeney over a distance of 26.7 kilometers. The Korte Klippe is one of 31 vantage points of the "Essen Views" project.
