케르셴바흐‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 천연기념물

At the beginning of the 20th century, the village priest bred trout in the maar, which was around 100,000 years old. In the 1920s the water was drained and its quickly overgrown, fertile ground was used as a viewing area. 80 years later, scientists proved that this was a silted maar. During a core drilling, 23 m of animals found tuff remains from the Laacher See eruption 13,000 years ago. In addition, the funnel lies on a geological fault line that runs from northwest to southeast. The renatured maar is around 120 meters in diameter and offers a biotope for numerous birds. When the maar was revived from 2007, the Oosbach was dammed. Source: 111 places in the Eifel that you have to see Further information: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eichholzmaar

Super nice little nature reserve with many bird observation posts. Many paths around the Maar and a small parking lot are the ideal starting point for a hike.

You'll almost come across here again on the way back. Enjoy the well signposted path!

Just a few more meters and you've made it. At the top there is a great view and nice seating. Top!

The mountain path leads through an extremely barren and beautiful juniper landscape. Loosened up by the Stations of the Cross and peppered with beautiful views of the valley.

It is a great pleasure to walk over the wooden planks through the unique wetlands near Dahlem. Information signs along the way explain the marshy flora and provide interesting information. In any case, please always stay on the wrong track, otherwise there is a risk of forever sinking into the moor!

There are a good 350 volcanoes in the Vulkaneifel; 75 of these are designed as “maars” and 12 maars have a maar lake, including the Eichholzmaar. With a diameter of 120 meters and a maximum depth of 3 meters, the Eichholzmaar is one of the smaller Eifelmaars. Nevertheless, the circular shape of the maar basin is clearly visible. https://www.eifel.info/a-eichholzmaar

Very beautiful valley, which is ideal for hiking.
