Steling - Höchster Punkt der Städteregion Aachen

Mützenich is located on the Belgian border, in the catchment area of ​​the High Fens, below the highest elevation of the Aachen region, the Steling (658 m above sea level NHN).
Through the route of the now degraded Vennbahn Mützenich is next to other districts Monschaus and Roetgens an exclave of Germany, which is completely enclosed by Belgium. The Vennbahntrasse, like some forest areas previously belonging to Mützenich, has been part of Belgian territory since 1920 under the terms of the Versailles Treaty. Right and left of the Vennbahntrasse the boundary stones can be found in the area.
After the end of the Second World War, Belgium planned to annex the ensign created by the Vennbahn, but dropped these plans again in April 1949.

Eifel views are particularly beautiful viewpoints in the Eifel. They were built by the German-Belgian Nature Park and the Rureifel-Tourismus e. V. selected.
