Obermaubach Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

A truly lovely spot for a break. From here you have a wonderful view over the reservoir. For a light snack or a delicious coffee, I recommend Café Fink near the bridge. Listening to the sound of the fish ladder, enjoying a good slice of cake, and a cup of coffee makes for a very relaxing experience.

Buntsandstein Cliffs (Rur Valley)

Highlight • Natural Monument

Beautiful rock formations made of red sandstone. The red sandstone cliffs in the Rur Valley have been under nature protection since 1999. Eagle owls have been breeding here again for some time. Every year the eagle owls are counted in the rocks of the Rur valley and the young are ringed. In 2017, five uhu pairs were able to raise ten cubs in the Rur Valley.

A scenic trail run! The ups and downs are rewarded with magnificent views and – from a sporting perspective – with remarkable muscle soreness.
