June 21, 2025,Sonnenliege mit super Aussicht – Blick auf den Rursee Runde von Einruhr
View of the Rursee Loop from Einruhr.
With a fantastic view above the lake.
Sun loungers, which are plentiful, are simply a delight.


We started at the parking lot on Wollseifener Straße
because it's free there.
The circular hike then takes us through the beautiful Eifel forests with wilderness trails
and along the Rursee shore.
