バートミュンスターアイフェルの湖・トップ20

Beautiful lake near Blankenheim

Beautiful lawn for sunbathing on the banks of Lake Freilingen. The nearby restaurants invite you to stop by for delicious food and cool drinks. On summer weekends when the weather is good for swimming, it can get quite crowded here.

The Freilinger See is a dam that protects the villages below from flooding. It offers many recreational opportunities, including fishing. For information, see e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stauanlage_Weilerbach or https://www.eifel.info/a-freilinger-see-1

Four old ponds lie along the path as if strung on a pearl necklace. It's quiet here and perfect for a little rest.

Very nice destination with plenty of leisure opportunities. Some walking and hiking trails invite you to explore the surrounding area.

The photos that can still be seen of the Steinbach dam, which show a large, shimmering blue water surface, are older. After the heavy rain catastrophe of July 2021, due to the amount of water that caused the dam to temporarily break, the dam ran empty. As far as I know, it has not yet been decided whether the dam will ever be closed again and a lake will be dammed.

The Eulenbach has dug deep into the terrain and the drought of the past summer has left its mark on the ponds. The water system seems to be completely out of balance here.

Easily walkable path in a beautiful stream landscape.
