The Eifel region offers such a wealth of attractions that a single vacation will certainly not suffice to see them all. With so many exciting activities to choose from, picking your next destination will be a time-filling task all by itself.

Picturesque villages and towns such as Heimbach, Hellenthal, Blankenheim, Roetgen, Simmerath - and, of course, Monschau - and plenty of charming, untouched countryside offer innumerable options for walks, hikes, day trips, or week-long vacations. Throughout the geological ages, diverse formations and landscape types have evolved in the Eifel region. From the flat Zülpicher Börde to the Eifel heights around Blankenheim and the state boundary between North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate, the Eifel unfolds a infinitely diverse range of natural scenery.

Extensive forests near Bad Münstereifel beckon hikers, and the region around the Rur impound lake near Schwammenauel and the fenland of the Hohes Venn near the Belgian border offer seemingly endless miles of trail.

Our photos can only give a few select examples to illustrate that the Eifel is well worth a trip at any time of the year. A list of all its sights and attractions would exceed the scope of this website.
