ネイデンバッハの天然記念物・トップ20

The Kalem volcano is one of the largest and oldest volcanoes in the Eifel region. A glimpse into approximately 600,000 years of Earth's history.

Very nice path along the former quarry to the former volcano.

Wild garlic as far as the eye can see. But be careful: in nature reserves, special regulations apply to wild garlic, which you should inquire about. You can usually take a handful of leaves for your own use. That way, you can look forward to your next walk or next spring, right?

disused quarry, no crater

This is not the crater as often mistakenly assumed, but a disused quarry

This is not the crater, as is often wrongly assumed. This is a disused quarry. A typical crater cannot be seen at Kalem. Instead, there are basalt scoria, columnar basalt and ash.

Anyone who wants to can test their knowledge of the local forest here. Interesting for adults too.

I would recommend just reading the information board and not climbing up to the rock with the small caves. You can catch a glimpse of the barred cave entrances, but that's all.
