New year’s sunrise in Duisburg
Hey! It’s 2022! What would be a great way to dive into the new year? How about following the Japanese tradition: Watching the very first sunrise of the year?

So the plan is quite simple: we’re gonna see each other in front of Düsseldorf Hbf at 6:45am. Then:
- Dep: 07:07 Düsseldorf Hbf – Platform 14 (S 1)
- Arr: 07:30 Duisburg-Buchholz – Platform 2
Then we start hiking. Easy, isn’t it? There’s a viewing platform on the way (which is in the middle of the 6 lakes) from where we should be able to see the sunrise! If you come from a different city, feel free to join us wherever you want on the way! It’s within the VRR region so if you have a Ticket 2000/Semester ticket/Young Ticket Plus, you can travel there for free. Even if you don’t it’s very likely that someone can take you for free so just be there in time!
Then we’ll walk according to this map (in kml-format) or this map (in gpx-format). The total distance is something like 9.2 km.
Maybe we can have a breakfast together or so afterwards. I don’t know how it’s gonna be, but I’m sure that it’s going to an amazing experience!
This event is also organized on Facebook. Check it out from here:
