바트 회닝겐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

During the summer months, suitable photo spots are scarce, as the lake is only visible from the bike path through the trees. But there are these little hotspots.

Lake Laach in the eastern Volcanic Eifel, near Maria Laach Abbey in the municipality of Glees, is the largest lake in Rhineland-Palatinate. It formed in the caldera of the Laach volcano after its last eruption, which was initially dated to 10,930 BC. Following radiocarbon dating of buried tree trunks carried out in 2021, the date of this eruption was corrected to 11,056 BC; doubts about the accuracy of the new dating have not yet been confirmed. The outgassing observed as mofettes in the southeastern part of the lake is a sign of ongoing volcanism. Source: Wikipedia

The Laacher See is very beautiful.

We spotted a lot of great crested grebes. And it was very exciting which plants bloomed.

Here you can see the cliff edges and ancient rocks from the time when Laacher See arose from a volcanic eruption.

A beautiful place to rest and watch the wildlife. This time we were able to observe two pairs of great crested grebes. Simply a place for the soul.

A beautiful biotope and a wonderful place for a break.

Even experts are puzzled about the geological formation of the Rodder Maare. It is certainly not of volcanic origin, so it is not a maar. Because of its circular shape, it could have been formed by a meteorite impact. What is certain is that the Rodder Maar has experienced an interplay of irrigation and drainage, agricultural and forestry use in the course of its history. For a long time it served as a fish pond for the Lordship of Olbrück. During times of need in the 19th century it was drained to grow crops. However, the constantly damp clay soil was neither suitable for arable farming nor for fodder production. Most recently, in the early 1960s, water-draining spruces were planted and the maar was drained. These efforts had not paid off. Source: http://www.ostiefel-aktiv.de/40848/41919.html
