Circular trail - 7 km - from the Höfen National Park gate parking lot
This circular trail takes you through Höfen, the village of the famous beech hedges. Between the green walls, sweeping views of the Monschau countryside open up again and again. The trail runs alongside the abandoned Perlenbach mill and the Perlenbach dam - places where history and nature merge.
