Absolute highlight on the Rur! A rocky, narrow trail goes along the wild river. Sometimes you have to use your hands to climb over rocks. A little adventure that requires surefootedness and sturdy shoes. That's fun!

The path between Widdau and Hammer on the banks of the Rur is beautiful, but very difficult. Absolute sure-footedness is required here.
