The Reichenstein Viaduct offers an impressive viewpoint – whether you're cycling or walking. This spot is one of the most scenic sections of the Vennbahn cycle path within the Monschau municipal area. From there, you have a sweeping view across the Ermesbach valley to the area surrounding the Vennhof farm, while in the other direction, you can see Reichenstein Monastery with its pond and the wooded slopes of the Rur valley.
