There is an impressive beech tree here, which is certainly very, very old.

Beautiful and majestic to still see such old trees

Two benches invite us to linger here. A beautiful view of Lake Laach is also included.

While walking around Lake Laach and then visiting the abbey, you can put together an entire year's calendar from countless great photos.

The venerable Benedictine abbey of MARIA LAACH, very picturesquely situated on the banks of Lake Laach, is without a doubt one of the great highlights of this region. In addition to the extremely impressive Romanesque monastery church, where the monks meet several times a day for communal prayer (visitors are welcome to join in the prayers), there are restaurants, a book and art shop, a garden center and other businesses. Many visitors combine a tour of the abbey with a walk around the lake.

The 2 km long Kottenheimer Wichtelweg is a lovely pre-Christmas destination. All kinds of people and groups from the area have made gnome houses and gnome crafts that you can visit at around 50 stations. The Wichtelweg is open daily and around the clock from November 17, 2024 to January 8, 2025, as it is located on public hiking trails in the "Kottenheimer Winfeld".

"Lake Laach is the largest lake in Rhineland-Palatinate and a popular tourist destination. In summer, a dip in the cool water is a tempting experience, and there are exciting things to discover on the eastern shore of the lake. Small bubbles rise up in the water - these so-called mofettes are rising carbon dioxide and illustrate the volcanic history of the lake (which, however, is not a maar like other volcanic lakes in the Eifel). About 13,000 years ago, there were several massive eruptions of the Laacher See volcano. First, rising magma hit water-bearing layers and triggered a steam explosion. In the following eruption phase, several ash columns formed - similar to Vesuvius - the ash from which spread widely across Europe. However, there were interruptions during this eruption. This led to the ash columns collapsing and becoming hot streams of embers. The streams of embers flowed into the valleys towards Brohltal and Pellenz and filled them up. The cooled lava flows are called trass. Today you can visit trass caves in the Brohltal and also an old Roman mine in which the material was mined near Meurin. There was another eruption of the volcano, in which basalt blocks were blasted out of older lava rocks surrounding the volcano. These basalt blocks can be viewed in the Wingertsberg wall near Mendig..." MORE INFORMATION: https://www.eifel.info/laacher-see-und-maria-laach
