    The riverside path up and down the Rur is always exciting.

      The RurUfer cycle path is a cycle path that runs along the Rur for around 180 kilometers. It begins near the Rur sources at the highest elevation in Belgium, the Botrange in the High Fens, and leads to the mouth of the Maas in Roermond, the Netherlands. In between, the route runs mostly on German territory. At Kalterherberg, the path crosses the Belgian-German border and runs through Monschau on the Obersee and the Rur dam to Heimbach. From there, it continues north through Nideggen and Kreuzau through the Düren district and then through the Heinsberg district. Behind the Effelder Waldsee, the cycle path crosses the German-Dutch border. It ends at the mouth of the Rur in Roermond.
      The route runs almost exclusively on separate cycle and farm paths. The RurUfer cycle path is part of the NRW cycle network and is signposted with the typical red and white signposts. On the sections in Belgium and the Netherlands, junction-based signage is used.

        The river has been partially renatured here and many waterfowl live there.

          View of the Ruhr: The Ruhr flows through the wide valley with little gradient. You don't even notice on the Ruhrradweg that big cities like Dortmund are only a few kilometers away.

            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. Along 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

                  Always nice to drive.
