View of the Rursee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Great views of the Rurtalsperre - I almost felt like I was in Canada. 😀

When the dam was built at the beginning of the 20th century, the Urftsee was the largest reservoir in Europe. The reservoir lies entirely within the Eifel National Park, where nature is allowed to run free in many places. There is a place to stop for refreshments right next to the dam. A special feature for Germany is that the Rursee is located right at the foot of the dam.

Eifel View at Modenhübel

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Eifelblick Modenhübel offers hikers an impressive panoramic view of the Kermeter-Hochwald, part of the Eifel National Park, and of the Kneipp spa town of Gemünd, located at the confluence of the Olef and Urft rivers. A visit to the Eifelblick Modenhübel from early to mid-May is particularly worthwhile when the forests of the Eifel National Park shine in fresh green.

Gemünd Brewery

Highlight • Restaurant

A very good place for a stop. The food portions are huge, even if they are declared small on the menu. The (home brewed) beer is delicious. When the weather is nice you can sit outside. For coffee drinkers and cake eaters, there is a café ten meters opposite with an extensive range of cakes.
