The Rurtalbahn is a regional railway company in Germany, officially Rurtalbahn GmbH, serving the Rur River valley between Düren station and the Rursee tourist area in the Eifel region. The name literally means "Rur Valley Train" (German: Rur Valley Railway). The train operates on the RB21 line between Linnich, Düren, and Heimbach, and has several stops in the Rur Valley, including stops near Lake Rursee and surrounding villages. There is no official station name "Rursee" on the line, but the nearest Rurtalbahn stop to Lake Rursee is the station. Heimbach Bahnhof (Heimbach train station) is the main stop at the terminus of the RB21 towards Heimbach. From here, you can continue on foot or by bus to the shores of the Rursee (there's a bus stop at Schwammenauel, about a 7-minute walk from the Rursee). 🚆 How does the train service work? The Rurtalbahn train RB21 runs from Düren to Heimbach, stopping at various stations along the way in the Rurtal. During peak season and tourist periods, there's frequent service, usually hourly, and every 30 minutes during peak hours. You can combine the train journeys with regional travel passes (such as AVV or VRS tickets), depending on your departure point. From the Netherlands, for example, you can travel via Aachen or Düren with regional trains and then transfer to the Rurtalbahn towards Heimbach-Rursee (RB21). Several local bus lines and tourist offices connect to the train, making it relatively easy to plan a day trip without a car. The Rursee itself is one of the largest reservoirs in Germany and is located in the heart of the Rureifel / Eifel National Park is a popular recreation area for hiking, cycling, water sports, and nature. Around Lake Rursee, you'll find Rursee boat trips and boat tours (near Schwammenauel and Rurberg). Hiking and cycling routes through the forest and along the lake, with Heimbach itself boasting cafés, culture, and Art Nouveau craftwork along the Rur. The Rurtalbahn takes you by train through the idyllic Rur Valley from Düren to Heimbach near Lake Rursee. The nearest station for Lake Rursee is Heimbach Bahnhof. From there, it's a short walk or bus ride to the shores of the reservoir. The train is popular with tourists and local travelers, especially for its nature recreation and excursions to the lake.

Along the banks of the Eifel reservoirs, such as the Obermaubach Reservoir and the Rursee, you'll frequently find rest stops and picnic areas, but a special feature is the round bench by the water. These benches are often positioned so that you can look all around and enjoy a panoramic view of the lake and the surrounding valleys. Unlike conventional, straight benches, these round seats invite conviviality, as several people can sit comfortably and simultaneously enjoy the view in every direction. A round bench by a reservoir not only serves as a resting place for hikers, cyclists, or fishermen but also forms a natural vantage point. At the Obermaubach Reservoir, for example, such benches are strategically placed along hiking trails and viewpoints overlooking the water and the wooded slopes. From such a spot, you can watch the gently lapping water of the reservoir, observe the surrounding forests and hills, and even recognize the outline of the village of Obermaubach or the dam itself in the distance. These benches are also designed to promote peace and contemplation. The round shape allows you to turn your face towards the sun or the water without having to leave the bench. Moreover, they are often made of sustainable wood or combined with concrete, making them weatherproof and able to withstand years of use, even in the damp environment of a reservoir. For hikers or cyclists following the Rurtalradweg or the trails around the reservoir, the round bench offers an ideal spot to rest, take photos, or simply enjoy the surroundings. The view over the water, the surrounding forests, and the changing light in the morning or evening make this simple arrangement a small but memorable part of the natural experience.

Good for a roll backwards

Located directly on the shore of the lake.

A nice place for a rest!

Through the window you can watch the fish moving over the fish ladder into the Obermaubach reservoir. There are benches in front of the window for resting and relaxing.

Very nice bench located by the reservoir. The bench is very comfortable and you sit opposite each other.

At the fish ladder there is an observation station and a sweet chestnut tree that is at least 120 years old.
