In a cozy atmosphere, at "Tempo 20", passengers can enjoy the diverse charms of the volcanically shaped Brohl Valley on the 18 km long Brohl Valley Railway between Brohl-Lützing am Rhein and Kempenich-Engeln. During a 90-minute drive, the volcano express, the narrow-gauge railway, winds through the sometimes very narrow valley over elegant stone bridges near Bad Tönisstein and Oberzissen as well as through an almost 100m long tunnel at Burgbrohl on the plateau of the volcanic Eastern Eifel.
The city of Mendig has an attractive and varied leisure pool.
Every year before Easter, the first processions of the year come from the surrounding communities to Fraukirch near Thür in the open field. It is one of the oldest churches in the Eifel and Rhineland, based on its 1,200-year-old church tradition.
The observation tower on Weiselstein near Schalkenbach Nord offers a wonderful view over the juniper heath.
Soil outcrops on the Wingertsbergwand near Mendig allow science to explain the history of the Laacher See eruption through comparisons with currently active volcanoes.
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.
