We wade into a shallow stream and look for invertebrates in the water and under the rocks. We carefully examine them with a magnifying glass in a bowl filled with water. We identify them using pictures. We also measure the temperature and pH level of the water. Is the water clean or polluted? We’ll investigate that. Finally, we release the little creatures back into the stream.

During a short hike, we’ll explore the Eifel’s only crater lake and the Mosenberg Volcano Adventure Park! Along the way, we’ll discover a fascinating lava fissure and a lava flow. At the Bettenfeld lava quarry, we’ll explore the layers of cinder cones and collect lava rocks. Along the way, we’ll have fun learning about the shapes, colors, and types of rock that nature has to offer!

From the Vulkanhaus, we’ll walk to the world’s largest lava bomb on the outskirts of Strohn. You’ll be surprised to learn how it was formed! This is where “Strohner Schweiz” begins—the area where the volcanoes erupted. Passing an imposing lava wall, we walk down to the Alf and along a massive basalt flow to the Sprinker Maar. On the way back, the trail goes uphill, but it’s worth the effort—you’ll get a view of the Wartgesberg lava pit from above.
