Hiking

From the hills around the Schalkenmehrener Maar you have different views of the village and the almost circular water surface. One view is more beautiful than the other. Sometimes you see the St. Martin Church reflected in the water, or you can see a dry maar or the adjacent maar with fen.

Hiking

From here you have a great view of the Schalkenmehrener Maar. It is one of the three Dauner Maars and if you look closely you can see that it was once a double maar that was formed by volcanic activity around 20,000 to 30,000 years ago. However, the tuff of the western maar filled the eastern maar funnel, so that today all that remains of the second maar is the fen vegetation in this area.
