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.

Beautiful lake with all touristic possibilities, including the stop of the Rurtalbahn.

The Obermaubach reservoir is fed by the Rur. It is a very nice local recreation area. If you want to go around it, you have to cover 20 kilometers. The route by bike should be planned carefully as there are no real bike paths on the Obermaubach side, only forest paths.
Otherwise the lake offers a lot of relaxation.
