Maarsattel
Hiking Highlight
This Highlight is in a protected area
Please check local regulations for: Vulkaneifel
This is the hill between the Schalkenmehrener and the Weinfelder Maar, also called Totenmaar. From the saddle you can see the two maars, which are also known as the eyes of the Eifel, very good. A nice place where you should stop for a moment and let nature take its toll on you.

From Maarsattel you have an impressive view of two Maare (Schalkenmehrener Maar and Weinfelder Maar) and their explosive history. You can see Schalkenmehren in one direction and the Weinfelder Kapelle in the other.
Here there is a viewing platform with a bench on which to linger very well.August 4, 2016

The water was unexpectedly warm. You should not swim in the maar, but let the dog down to the water while walking up to the hips, no one would mind

It is most beautiful in winter when the weather is nice and the view is magnificent.
