ルルダムの湖・トップ20

Always nice there!

The ideal starting point for a walk around the Rursee (approx. 27km). It is also not far to the Urft Dam (approx. 4km) and the former Nazi Ordensburg Vogelsang (approx. 10km).

Since the marina is also served by cars, buses, hikers and cyclists, it is often busy here. Sailors and pedal boaters get their money's worth here, as do passengers on the Rursee shipping company.

The Paulusdamm near the town of Rurberg separates the (actual) Rursee from the Obersee. The latter begins at Einruhr, where the Rur - coming from Monschau or further up the Belgian Fens - flows into the Obersee. This is a valuable water protection area and supplies many people in the greater Aachen area with drinking water. The Rursee below is also used by many water sports enthusiasts. The banks of the Obersee and Rursee are partly part of the Eifel National Park.

This location keeps a variety of options open. Not only the view of the Rursee makes this place special, but from there a Rursee boat trip can be booked to see the Rursee from a different perspective. In addition, boats and canoes can be rented from the "RurseeZeit" (https://rurseezeit.de/) bots rental service. A sailing school is also offered. The location is also suitable for stopping off at the Hotel "Der Seehof" (https://derseehof.eu/?gclid=CjwKCAjwhdWkBhBZEiwA1ibLmNw-XIg5IaU824k3ltsj4hUYVtw4NWLh5Q1se7IH5uu0wxPNNMIDQxoCikkQAvD_BwE).

Wonderful hiking area around the Rurtalsperre - whether with children and buggies on the lake shore or with a few meters of altitude through the forest
