Eifel & Aachen

Hot springs and nature

Wild nature, places steeped in history and the hottest springs north of the Alps - a visit to the Eifel & Aachen can be considered particularly varied. While the Carolus Thermen thermal baths in the historic imperial city bubble with healthy thermal water that Charlemagne already appreciated, the primeval forest of tomorrow thrives in the Eifel National Park. The adventure exhibition "Wildnis(t)räume" in the Vogelsang IP Forum National Park Centre illustrates the background.

Accessible through the wilderness

Visitors can discover the species-rich birdlife of the only national park in NRW at a bird-watching station, and on the 1.5-kilometre-long "Wilder Weg" nature discovery trail, there are ten mostly interactive stations where you can learn interesting facts about wilderness, forest development and the diversity of animal and plant species.

Whether observing red deer on a viewing gallery near Dreiborn, enjoying unique views of the national park and dam landscape in the accessible Wilder Kermeter nature experience area or marvelling at 100-year-old machines in a historic cloth factory - there are many offers that are certified according to Travel for All and could be destinations for your next holiday in NRW.
