indeland-Radroute 5: Rurauen-Berg-Route

Experience something new in a varied landscape The RurUferRadweg, the Wasserburgenroute and the Grünroute lead through the indeland. These long supra-regional main cycle routes cannot be completed in one day. The indeland cycle routes consolidate the tourist cycle route network in indeland and are designed as day or half-day tours. Experience the unmistakable scenic attractions and contrasts in the northern part of the district of Düren on the routes. The routes take you through the agricultural landscape to the sights of our region. Take your time and discover the Welzer Alps, the Indemann and the open-cast lignite mine, Laufenburg or Lake Barmen. Even if you are familiar with the region, you will "experience" many new things at a relaxed cycling pace. The routes, with a length of 10 km to 20 km, lead along existing cycle paths and farm tracks, residential roads and low-traffic side roads. The routes run on flat to slightly hilly terrain and are therefore also suitable for children and less trained cyclists.
