Monastery Route

Monschau

The imposing rocks of the Ehrensteinsley, the wild, romantic Rur valley, stretches of forest full of wild species, wide meadow landscapes with rows of old beech trees and whitethorn hedgerows and the Perlenbachtal dam offer beautiful landscapes for you to enjoy. One insider tip is the narcissus slope, which turns into a sea of flowers during the spring. Cultural highlights along the way: Kloster Reichenstein monastery with a waterlily pond, the Norbertuskapelle chapel and the many places of interest in the clothweaving town of Monschau.

The former Premonstratensian monastery from the 12th century is located in the austere Eifel landscape, in the middle of the "High Fens" nature park, right on the German-Belgian border. The complex, which includes over 32 hectares of forest and a fish pond, is located on a rock plateau at the mouth of the Rur, which meanders in the valley between Kalterherberg and Eschweide, and the Ermesbach. It is 7 km to the picturesque town of Monschau. Details ansehen
