Hiking

After the Rur has been straightened, the old course of the river has partly remained. After finally realizing that industrialization is not always an advantage, nature has left the decision to determine the course itself. It wasn't a bad idea. A paradise for animals and birds has now emerged on the old arm of the Rur.
