    Tips

    The eruption of the former Laacher See volcano 250,000 years ago threw ash into the air, which covered the Middle Rhine Basin as a meter-high layer of pumice. The lake was formed by groundwater when the pumice was mined and refilled. Bathing is only possible in the marked area on working days.

      This place is so beautiful dogsounds.me
        A cute little lake in the middle of the forest. 🌳 You can take a quick or slow walk around the lake.
