The Eifel is a low mountain range in western Germany and is located in a fantastic location between Koblenz in the east, Aachen in the north and Trier in the south.
It belongs to the Rhenish Slate Mountains and fascinates its visitors with the breathtaking landscapes of an extinct volcanic world.
Wonderful natural beauties, numerous rivers and lakes as well as a colorful mix of attractive leisure activities make the Eifel a popular holiday destination for the whole family all year round. In summer, you can swim to your heart’s content on the romantic lakes, and the “Laacher See” offers special driving fun with its pedal boats. Anyone who has always wanted to sail or dive can take a course at the “Rurstausee”.
In bad weather, the wide slides in the “Vulkanbad Mendig” ensure fun and action, while the “Römer-Therme” in Bad Breising is calm and tranquil. Families can relax here with wellness.
The Eifel is also an Eldorado for forays into nature. The “Eifelsteig” leads around 300 kilometers from Aachen to Trier and offers fantastic views, magnificent rock formations, idyllic river valleys and untouched landscapes along the way.
