Rur Lake

The Schwammenauel Dam is a 77.4-meter-high dam in the southwest of North Rhine-Westphalia, which impounds the Rur River, creating the 7.83 square kilometer Rur Reservoir at the border between Aachen and Düren. The Rur Reservoir is the second largest reservoir in Germany.

Active visitors can walk around it, cycle around it, and of course, enjoy activities on and in the lake: swimming areas at the Rur Lake Center in Rurberg, Woffelsbacher Bay, Sonnenstrand Eschauel, and the nature experience pool in Einruhr invite people to swim. Stand-up paddlers and canoeists can explore the Rur Lake from the water. Watercraft can be rented on-site, and the Rursee shipping company offers boat tours across the lake.

The Jülich Sailing Club (SCJ), founded in 1968, also has its boats moored at Rur Lake.

The club provides its own boats for general use.

What Jülich offers for

*Dividing people into age groups provides a useful way of organizing and matching interests and activities. This allows like-minded people with similar life experiences and needs to come together to encourage social interaction and shared activities. However, it should be noted that this categorization is not always universally valid, as we humans have different interests and preferences. For example, a toddler may also enjoy senior bingo. Nevertheless, we have not grouped this activity into this category. The categorization only serves as a guidance!
