Hattingen is a scenic city located in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany. The city borders the River Ruhr, not the Roer (Rur) River. The Ruhr River has played a significant role in not only defining the city's topography but also its historical industrial development.

However, even with this change in temperature, the possibility for swimming in the river can be limited due to various factors. Public Swimming in rivers in Germany is regulated by law, and one can only swim in designated safe and clean areas. While there are numerous recreational activities available on the Ruhr for locals and visitors to enjoy, such as boating and riverside hiking, the specific permissions for swimming may vary in different areas.
