RurUfer Cycle Path at Obermaubach Reservoir

Highlight • Cycleway

The RurUfer cycle path is a long-distance cycle path that runs from the source in the High Fens near Botrange in Belgium through the Eifel to the mouth of the Maas near Roermond in the Netherlands. You cycle for over 170 kilometers through hilly forests and idyllic landscapes, always following the Rur. On the way you pass through many villages worth seeing and there is always something interesting to discover. This makes the RurUfer cycle path a very varied cycling experience: netreisetagebuch.de/rurufer-radweg

Obermaubach Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

A truly lovely spot for a break. From here you have a wonderful view over the reservoir. For a light snack or a delicious coffee, I recommend Café Fink near the bridge. Listening to the sound of the fish ladder, enjoying a good slice of cake, and a cup of coffee makes for a very relaxing experience.

Obermaubach Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The reservoir is particularly popular with water sports fans. Here you can paddle, row or go pedal boats. There are also some surfers and sailors on the way.

Boats can be rented from the boat rental at the dam. The prices start from 5 euros.
