A great place to take a break and let your gaze wander. But it's better in autumn, because you can see even deeper into the valley without the leaves on the trees.

The Eifel view "Grünenthal" near Monschau-Imgenbroich, at an altitude of 490 meters above sea level, offers a view over the valley of the upper Rur before it flows into the Rurstausee.

Several mills were operated here on the Rur and its tributaries until the 1940s.

Farmers from the surrounding area were able to have their grain ground in the Belgenbach mill until the 1920s. The mill then served as a youth home for the Catholic Church. Today it has been lovingly renovated and is privately owned.

The village of Hammer is also very close by, and its origins go back to an ironworks called Hermeshammer in the Rurtal. Later there was also a grain mill in Hammer called Hammermühle.
