SternenBlick in Nideggen-Schmidt: "Night nature"

The Heimbach International Academy of Art is a recognised educational and training centre for artistic creation in the visual arts in the Rhineland.

As soon as snow falls in the Eifel, the landscape is transformed into a winter paradise and you can go tobogganing, cross-country skiing or downhill skiing! The small ski resorts in the Eifel have many advantages for winter sports fans: short journey times, a family atmosphere, cozy huts and great opportunities for tobogganing and cross-country skiing. There are numerous trails around the Monschau region where cross-country skiers can let off steam, for example in Lammersdorf, Eicherscheid, Kalterherberg, Höfen and Rohren.

Steep descents and equally crisp climbs over several single trails require not only fitness but also technical skills. If that's not enough to exhaust you, you can clear your head on the windy plateaus of Schmidt and Hürtgenwald at the latest. Parking is available at the church in Vossenack and at the Zweifallshammer in Simonskall.
