The new „Eifelsteig“ (Eifel trail) reaches from Aachen to Trier. The Eifelsteig is one of the most beautiful cross country  trails for hiking in Germany (One of the TopTrails of Germany).  Starting in Kornelimünster, near Aachen, the trail winds up through a protected area called "Struffelder Heide" passing the Dreilägerbach dam near Roetgen.  Here you enter the High Fens and then reach the castle and old facades of the historic city of Monschau.  Characteristic for this region near the rural villages of Höfen and Rohren are the common beech hedges… You sure will enjoy it.
