    Magnificent view of the Rur Valley and the reservoir.
    The forest chapel was built between 1994 and 1996 by the Obermaubach working group and is open to visitors.
    This "Eifel-Bick" is a good place for a rest and there are enough benches available.
    In the immediate vicinity of the forest chapel there is a memorial stone in honor of Countess Alveradis von Molbach (approx. 1155 to 1222).
    The legend of Alveradis can be read in detail on the information board.

      Well-kept chapel, which was specially built for hikers, therefore unlike so many others, not closed.
      Outside seating with views, some with tables.

        From here you have a very nice view of Obermaubach and the reservoir.
