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!

A document from 1112 confirms that Heinrich II, Count of Laach and Count Palatine of the Rhine Franconia, gave the village of Kruft to the Benedictine monastery Maria Laach in 1093.

Powerful natural forces created these unique natural beauties. The "eyes of the Eifel", as they are commonly known, shimmer deep blue and captivate their visitors.

The wild and romantic Wolfsschlucht invites you to take a trip. The Tönissteiner Bach, which rises shortly after the village of Wassenach, first passes idyllically situated trout ponds, only to plunge several meters straight behind it and then meander wildly to find its way through volcanic ash to the Brohlbach.

This Eifel view is located on the promenade of the Dormio Resort "Eifeler Tor". It offers a wonderful view of the Rurtal valley as well as over Heimbach-Hasenfeld.
