Northern Eifel, Hohes Venn and the medieval city core with numerous half-timber houses and small aisles- in the city of Monschau and its surrounding there`s a lot to discover. The Eifelsteig and other signposted routes for hiking fans run very close by. The youth hostel Monschau-Hargard, certified by the ADFC (German cyclists club) with the bed&bike-sports quality seal, is located at two of the most popular cycling-routes of the Rhineland.

GPS navigation devices and maps for mountain bikers are available at the hostel for individual tours. Special highlights are the guided hill moor-wanderings which we are offering in cooperation with experiences nature-guides.
