Wolfsschlucht

Wassenach

The wild and romantic Wolfsschlucht invites you to take a trip.

The Tönissteiner Bach, which rises shortly after the village of Wassenach, first passes idyllically situated trout ponds, only to plunge several meters straight behind it and then meander wildly to find its way through volcanic ash to the Brohlbach.

The jungle atmosphere of the Wolfsschlucht with impressive rock formations, small wooden bridges and picturesque waterfalls invites young and old to explore the world.

Tuffsteinzentrum Weibern

If you would like to learn more about tuff, you can find out more about this rock and its possible uses here in the "Weiberner Schaufenster" on the left. The path up to the right also takes you in just a few minutes to the open-air exhibition at the stone saw house, where, among other things, a stone saw and a crane clearly illustrate the work processes involved in the tuff stone. The tourist information offers regular guided tours to the impressive Weiberner tuff quarries and - like the local stone cutters' association - organizes hands-on stone hammering courses, in which individual works of art are created from volcanic rock.

Lavakeller – Unterirdische Kathedrale aus Basalt

There are many steps leading deep down below the town of Mendig: Here in the lava cellars, in the middle of the cooled volcanic rock, it is consistently cold even in the hottest summers, there is a mysterious dim light, there is the smell of moisture. Up to 28 Mendig breweries used the 32-metre-high, cathedral-like halls in the basalt rock to store fresh beer. Mighty pillars, left standing during centuries of basalt and lava mining, support the gigantic cellars. A guided tour through the cellars is an unforgettable aha experience. The Vulkan Brewery in Mendig, which is located above the cellars, still uses this unique cold storage facility today. The Lava Dome as a multimedia museum shows many more exciting facets of volcanism.
