Hiking

View of the red sandstone cliffs: From here you can see the red sandstone cliffs towering from the Rur valley in the distance. Anyone who spends a short vacation or a weekend in the Rureifel should not miss planning a hike along these striking rock formations. Absolutely worth it.

On this hiking section you have a nice view. In the valley of Hausen and you can see the Buntsandsteinfelsen.
