Wonderful route along the Rur to Nideggen. schedule a visit. Today it was too hot to drive up the mountain. Very nice path through the Ruraue wooded. The way back is also along the Rur. Easy to reach with the S-Bahn to get started in Düren. Just do a relaxing tour without an e-bike

October 31, 2023,Es gab doch noch ne Radtour an der Rur ..

Today I had the opportunity to go on a short bike ride along the Rur.
A bicycle had to be brought from Nideggen to Düren, and I gratefully accepted this offer.
I've already ridden this route, but the condition of the route has improved significantly and a lot has happened.
Put me in a good mood again.
We went past …

Along the Rur to Obermaubach. Big surprise: the bridge over the Rur at the campsite is almost finished during exercises - it is drivable.

May 20, 2024,Eifel-Radtour ab Düren bis Heimbach den RurUfer-Radweg, retour Rurtalbahn RB21

The RurUfer cycle path through the northern or Rur-Eifel is one of the most beautiful cycle routes, and we rode it for the first time today on sunny Whit Monday.

Unfortunately, Düren itself is quite ugly, was completely destroyed in the war and not rebuilt particularly beautifully. But you can park and set off easily at the P+R car park …

May 9, 2026,🇩🇪 Heimatrunde Düren - Heimbach

Today another one of our favorite tours. Whether on foot or by bike. Along the Rur and in its surroundings is always a pleasure. Tame or wild-romantic, the river makes its way through the Eifel. Left and right beautiful small old villages, protected by numerous castles.

July 11, 2022,Von Lendersdorf nach Heimbach via Ruruferradweg

Cycling almost like in Holland. At least the first piece until Zerkall. The section from Hausen to Heimbach is not that great. The path to the left of the Rur might be nicer.
