    The Urttalsperre is the oldest dam in the Eifel and a popular destination. The dam wall was the largest structure in Europe at the time, has a length of 266 m and a height of 59 m. There is a nice excursion restaurant at the dam wall, which you can reach by boat, bus, car, bike or on foot. The Urftsee is also a very beautiful hiking area with a great path along the shore, which always offers a beautiful view of the Ordensburg Vogelsang.

      There are always beautiful rocks and volcanic rocks to be discovered along the shore path.

        The view of the opposite bank of the dam with the buildings of the former Nazi Ordensburg Vogelsang, today Vogelsang ip, is impressive.
