On May 28, 2025, it was time for employees to get out of the office and into adventure! Once again, the day was all about team spirit, variety, and fun with a colorful program of knowledge, nature, water activities, and cozy get-togethers. More on our previous company excursions can be found in our <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/en?s=betriebsausflug\">blog entries<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the less than inviting weather in the morning, no one let it spoil the mood. And as is so often the case, perseverance was rewarded: as the day progressed, the sky cleared and the sun came out just in time for the joint finale in the afternoon.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #00549f;\">A Varied Program for All Tastes<\/span><\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_22297\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22297\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-22297\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-300x200.png\" alt=\"See\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-1536x1024.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog.rwth-aachen.de\/itc\/files\/2025\/06\/Blog-Layout-4-2048x1365.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-22297\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Own Illustration<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Wanderlust and Pure Nature<\/strong><br \/>\nHiking enthusiasts had two routes to choose from: a 5 km route and a 10 km route. Both led along the \u201cRursee\u201d, past water, forests, horses, and cows. Not only were there beautiful views, but the weather also improved with every passing hour!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Water, Water Everywhere! \u2013 Activities on and in the Water<\/strong><br \/>\nThose who preferred to get wet could let off steam at Sunny Beach: whether stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), canoeing, pedal boating, or simply relaxing by the water \u2013 there was something for everyone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Maritime Atmosphere on the Boat Tour<\/strong><br \/>\nThe boat tour on \u201cRursee\u201d was also a real highlight. Despite the rain at the start, many were not deterred and enjoyed the trip across the water in good company and with excellent views.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heimbach Hydroelectric Power Station<br \/>\n<\/strong>For the more inquisitive, there was an informative trip to the Heimbach hydroelectric power station. During a guided tour, visitors were able to view the Art Nouveau power station up close. Particularly fascinating was the historic part of the power station with its collection of old electrical appliances and the original control center, whose measuring instruments are mounted on marble.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #00549f;\">A Cozy End to the Day in Good Company<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>At 2 pm, all the groups met at the Beach Club Eifel. Together, they drank, laughed, and ended the day in a relaxed atmosphere.
