Four ponds that line up. Actually a nice place, but there is no bench or hut that invites you to rest. There is even a little space in one place …

The Eifel region in the area of the state border of North Rhine-Westphalia/RLP was hit by a massive flood around 07/14/21, which robbed many people of more than just their existence!

The Mittelahr Valley is particularly characterized by winegrowing and lives from tourism. A number of locations were destroyed. Many places completely devastated.
