"Scheiterhaufen" Ulmen

"Scheiterhaufen" Ulmen

Ulmen

On the hike through the May and Brandenbush at about kilometre 3, you will find experience point no. 4 - the pyre.

Only a short kilometre after the first crime scene, you will reach the funeral pyre in the Brandenbusch, which has been reconstructed with great effort. In the 16th century, not only witches but also suspected thieves and murderers were burned here. To find the witch's fire, you will have to do a bit of "bushwhacking".

On your hike "Witches, Hangmen & Scoundrels", experience point 4 is the "funeral pyre".

Schalkenmehrener Maar

Especially if you visit the GesundLand Vulkaneifel in summer, a detour to the Schalkenmehren Maar is a must. Located directly at the village of the same name and opposite the Weinfelder Maar, the Schalkenmehrener Maar is one of the three Dauner Maars and offers a wonderful backdrop for an extended walk or an extensive hike. If you look closely, you can see that the Schalkenmehren Maar was once a double maar, formed by volcanic activity around 20,000 to 30,000 years ago. But the tuffs of the western maar filled up the eastern maar funnel, so that nothing can be seen of the second maar today, except for the fen vegetation that has spread in this area. Take a little discovery tour and observe numerous animal and plant species along the way!
