Meerfelder Maar

Highlight • Lake

Surrounded by the beautiful landscape of the Westeifel, you can enjoy pure nature at the Meerfelder Maar while cycling. To rest, the natural swimming pool on the lake offers, which is open all year around the clock. There is a beautiful lawn where you can relax comfortably.

Prices for the sunbathing area:
If there is not much to do, you can use the lawn for free. On days with more visitors, the use of the lawn for adults costs 2 euros and for children 1 euro.

Meerfelder Maar

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

The Maarsee in the Meerfelder Maar is not circular but a semicircle, because the southern part of the Maars is not filled with water. Here lies the small village Meerfeld within the Maars. Especially towards the north, the maar is bounded by a steep slope more than 150 meters high. The trail directly on the northern shore below the slope is very beautiful and should be committed.

View of the Meerfelder Maar

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are parking spaces in front of Meerfeld and also in the village. I recommend the panorama or high-altitude trail, which leads after a stretch through the forest over an open area to the Landesblick. On the way there you always have sensational views of the Vulkaneifel and the Meerfeld Maar.

Big Bang Sculpture

Highlight • Monument

The Cosmos Cycle Path is a cycle path that opens up part of the Vulkaneifel on an almost slope-free route.

It connects the Eifel city of Daun with Meerfeld and the largest Eifelmaar, the Meerfelder Maar. In addition to the natural landscape of the region, it offers an insight into our solar system and the cosmos. He tries to convey a sense of the gigantic distances and periods of the surrounding universe. The path is divided into two areas. Between the Kurpark Daun and the Bleckhausener mill are models of the individual planets, scaled in size and distance to the sun. Here a covered meter corresponds to 500,000 km in reality. In the second section between the bridge at the Bleckhausener mill, which leads over the Kleine Kyll, and the Meerfelder Maar, the distance traveled does not correspond to distances, but time periods. Every meter equals three million years. The time from the Big Bang to today is demonstrated.

The family-friendly route is uniformly marked in both directions with the bike path logo. (Wiki)
