At the edge of the Schalkenmehrer Maar

Highlight • Lake

A bit off the railroad bike path, but definitely worth the detour. Here you are on top of the former crater rim and have a great view of the wide basin of the Schalkenmehrer Maares. Several worthwhile circular routes lead around the lake.

There is a car park on the road above the Maare. After crossing the road, a path leads down to the Maar, from where you can hike in various directions.

Maarsattel

Highlight • Viewpoint

From Maarsattel you have an impressive view of two Maare (Schalkenmehrener Maar and Weinfelder Maar) and their explosive history. You can see Schalkenmehren in one direction and the Weinfelder Kapelle in the other.
Here there is a viewing platform with a bench on which to linger very well.

Schalkenmehren Maar

Highlight • Lake

Schalkenmehren offers many opportunities to stop off.
If you don't want that, you can find a place to rest in many places around the Maar

View of the Gemünden maar

Highlight • Lake

This maar is not only very beautiful and accessible via the MaareGlück-Rundweg, but there is also a forest café and a swimming pool here. You can swim in the maar and rent boats, and the sunbathing lawn is on the sunny side. However, you have to watch out for ticks. Those who want to can jump into the maar from a seven-and-a-half-meter high diving tower.
