Natural outdoor pool Pulvermaar
GILLENFELDOne of the great natural beauties of the Volcanic Eifel is the Pulvermaar, embedded in a wonderful landscape, surrounded by beech forests - a natural monument of volcanic origin. As Germany's deepest maar, its crystal-clear water invites you to swim, go boating or fish. There is a disabled-accessible entrance to the Pulvermaar. The surrounding, well-kept lawns offer bathers the opportunity to relax after swimming in the natural pool Pulvermaar or one of the non-swimmers' pools or after using the water slide. Play equipment and a children's paddling pool also offer the little ones fun playing and swimming. In the cafeteria with outdoor terrace belonging to the outdoor pool, visitors and bathers can enjoy a unique view of the maar with coffee, cake and various delicacies in a cozy atmosphere.The use of watercraft of any kind, such as stand-up paddles (SUPs) or other floating bodies, is unfortunately not permitted on the Dauner Maar and the Pulvermaar by order of the Lower Nature Conservation Authority of the Vulkaneifel district. The exception is the community's own pedal boats and rowing boats. If you have any questions, please contact the Lower Nature Conservation Authority of the Vulkaneifel district.
