Description

By bike around the Rursee. Length: 26 km


With the water always at your side, the 26-kilometre circular tour leads through the unique surroundings of Lake Rursee and the Eifel National Park. Up and down, always along the shore, there are great panoramic views of the impressive lake landscape.

Notes:

  • Due to construction work on the lakeside promenade, there is a detour in the Rurberg area.
  • Due to a rock fall, the path between Woffelsbach and Eschauel is expected to be closed until the end of May 2024.
