Monschau
"A blaze of yellow daffodils and changing forests"
...is the title of the exhibition at the National Park Gate in Höfen. Huge images of wild daffodils ensure a very special atmosphere. In spring the daffodils can be experienced in their thousands near the Gate. The surrounding conifers from the days of commercial forestry here are gradually giving way to a natural, mixed deciduous forest. Visitors can experience the exhibition with all their senses at stations at which you can hear, smell and feel things.
