rursee-schifffahrt

For one hour we made a boattrip at the Rursee with a large electric boat. We could sit outside and enjoyed the beautiful nature of the Eifel.We can really advise you to make this trip!

On a beautiful sunny day we enjoyed a lovely quiet cruise on the lake, they take the environment very serious as the ships are powered by electric turbines. Very lovely scenery with forest coming down to the lakeside.

You can take the ferry, taking off in Einruhr and go towards Rurberg. They are both tiny villages but very quaint. Once in Rurberg, you can swim in the large lake. We did and we enjoyed it a lot.

Unfortunately we were constrained by time and could only do one stop up and back. On time and a smooth trip. Would have liked to do the full trip which would have been about 1 hour each way. Would definitely do the trip if we return

We took this boat for a one stop ride, since we were kind of on a schedule with a baby and wanted to hike back. So we got on board, told the guy who sold us the tickets we wanted to get off at the next stop and took a seat next to the door. The boat took off and after a few minutes we saw the next stop..... and sailed by.So I went to the ticket sales guy and asked what was up. Oh yeah, he said you wanted to get of at this stop. Sorry I forgot... And walked of. So I went to his supervisor to ask what went wrong. She said, you were supposed to stand next to the door if you wanted to get out. I replied we were sitting next to the door and no-one told us we had to stand there. Well, she said that was supposed to be the ticket-guys task. So I asked what we had to do now. She offered no other option than to sit this ride out, wait for 45 minutes at the end of the tour and go back again. I explained we had a baby with us who needed food and a change and what not. Her reply; than you should have been standing next to the door... No apologies, no free drink offered as an excuse for the long wait, nothing. As I by now reached my fury-level I asked what kind of service this was and she told me she did me a favour cause taking the almost full tour was more expensive than what I had paid so far. I couldn't believe what I heard. So after departing (again), I stood by the door for ten minutes telling everyone who wanted, needed and did not wanted to know, I had to get off at the next dock...The boat had a coffee-counter, which I out of anger did not use. The ride is rather boring, but the area offers nice hikes and for the elderly people it seems an enjoying event. I personally wouldn't recommend it to anyone, not even to people with all the time in the world, cause the service is un-Germanly bad!

The Rursee is a lovely place to visit, but the boat trip is a little boring. Have a walk round, and a coffee.

A nice relaxing way to see the lake or to get off at one of your stops and start a walk in the lovely countryside.

ca. 200 m vom Hotel bis zum Schiff - Schiff sehr gepflegt und sauber und auch Leise - sehr guten Kaffee und Kuchen - Personal freundlich und schnell -

Met een oudere dame op stap, dat heeft zo z'n beperking. Een prima oplossing,met de boot. We hadden de weergoden mee., konden gedurende de hele trip, met een onderbreking, buiten zitten. Met de onderbreking bedoel, we zijn eraf gegaan in stadje en 1uur later weer aanboord gegaan. Vanuit Schleiden niet ver 20 min. met auto. Er is een enorm parkeer terrein.Goed opletten,anders vind je je auto niet terug.We waren er vorige zomer

zeker een aanrader en neem dan het treintje ( 8 euro) voor een rondrit door de omgeving om het echt af te maken

Heel leuk en aangenaam om te doen, je kan veel zien van uit het watergezicht gezien. Daarnaast aangenaam een drankje op de boot.

Strikt op de vermelde tijden vindt de afvaart plaats. Prachtig gezicht vanaf het water naar de omgeving, een heel andere "Blick"

Van schammenauel met een rondvaart ticket over de rursee. Tussendoor kun je op de verschillende locaties uitstappen. Wij zijn in rugbyers uitgestapt even op de volgende stuwdam gekeken en een terrasje. Daarna met de boot naar eschauel en daar uitgestapt. Gewandeld naar schammenauel. Heel de route gaat langs het meer beschut door de bossen over een goed begaanbare weg. Zeer mooi echt aan te raden. Loopafstand 4 km.

Keuze uit verschillende mogelijkheden...Kleine rondvaarten van gemiddeld 1 uur, maar ook de mogelijkheid om beide meren te bezoeken met een combi-ticket, max 4 uur. Tussendoor ergens uitstappen is mogelijk!

een superaanrader: met de geluidloze (elektromotor) boot van Rurberg naar de stuwdam op de Urft en boven op de dam een landbiertje drinken met zicht op Vogelsang
