Active & outdoors in Aachen

Aachen offers a varied range of outdoor activities, from quiet city green spaces to cross-border walks. The Elisengarten and Stadtgarten Aachen provide relaxed open-air retreats in the city centre, while the Aussichtspunkt Preusweg rewards visitors with open views across the surrounding landscape. Heading further out, walkers can reach the Border tripoint where Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands meet, passing landmarks such as the Friedenskapelle, the Hubertuskapelle and the rural Haus Ober-Frohnrath. The river Wurm traces a natural corridor toward Hoeve Overhuizen across the border. The CHIO Brücke and Café Belle Vue round out the options for those exploring Aachen on foot.
