I'm not sure, but this highlight marks the beginning/end of the Ruufer cycle path. The Vennbahn line runs above Monschau.

View of the Rur River

Highlight • River

The name Dreistegen is reminiscent of the bridges over the Rur and the Perlenbach that flows into it here. From today's road bridge there are good views of the course of the river Rur.

Adventure Museum Lernort Natur Monschau

Highlight • Historical Site

The "Learning Place Nature" adventure museum in Monschau is an interactive learning and experience center that vividly conveys knowledge about nature and the environment. More than 1,000 animal specimens are presented in an exhibition area of approximately 200 square meters, showcasing native and international animal species as well as diverse habitats. Interactive stations, touch boxes, and special areas such as a bear and wolf grotto or a beehive visible behind glass allow for a direct experience of nature. The museum is aimed particularly at families, children, and school groups, and pursues the goal of promoting an understanding of ecological relationships and strengthening awareness of the need to protect nature and wildlife.

Monschau Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Shortly before reaching the old town, there is a top vantage point on the corpse alley. Nicely located, with a wonderful view of the evangelical church and the Red House, among other things.
