    Here, on a section of about one hundred meters, small rapids are created by lowering in the riverbed of the Rur.

      The Rur is very beautiful with the rapids in between

        The Rur actually flows quite calmly here, but you can hear the rapids from a distance. Although they are only on a short distance of approx. 100 m, they are still beautiful to look at.
