A new goal for every day.
The Vulkaneifel is unlike any other place. Thousands of years ago, the earth trembled here. Volcanoes shaped the landscape. And what remains is a region of unspoiled beauty. Crater lakes are nestled among rolling hills. Forests stretch across vast expanses. And in between: tranquility, fresh air, and space to breathe deeply.
There are so many different things to do in the Vulkaneifel that there’s something for everyone— whether you prefer a quiet getaway or an adventure. Here, everyone will find what they’re looking for—and often a little more.

Nature Experience: Vulkaneifel.
Dive in and be amazed.
If you love nature, this is the place for you. The maars are among the region’s most famous tourist attractions. Serene bodies of water surrounded by forest. Perfect for a walk or a rowboat ride. The Dauner Maare, the Pulvermaar, or the Gemündener Maar—each has its own unique character.
But the natural wonders of the Vulkaneifel extend far beyond the maars. Well-marked hiking trails wind through the region. The Eifelsteig offers challenging stages, while the EifelSchleifen provide shorter loop trails for a quick getaway. Those who prefer cycling will also find numerous routes—some completely relaxed, others more active and challenging—but always accompanied by that feeling of pure freedom.
