    Hiking

    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.

    Hiking

    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.
