Exploring the shores of the Rur Reservoir system, this route offers a gentle mix of water transit and woodland walking. The journey begins with a ferry ride across the Obersee from Einruhr to Rurberg, where pets are welcome on a leash. After crossing the Paulushof dam, the path leads into a fairly steep climb that requires sturdy footwear and makes this section unsuitable for wheelchairs or strollers. The effort pays off at the Schöne Aussicht viewpoint, delivering wide vistas of dark blue waters carving through forested mountain ridges. Shaded forest stretches and scenic overlooks guide the return path along the slopes back to the starting point in Einruhr.
