Mürmes Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

Just like the Daun Maarseen, the Mürmes is of volcanic origin. Here, however, the original maar has silted up and left behind a picturesque flat moor. In the past, peat …

Time to hike into the Eifel again.

Nice round, but actually too hot today. Mürmes is always worth a visit. Very nice stop in the beer garden in the Janshen poultry farm in Ellscheid and then swimming in the Schalkenmehrener Maar

A tour with lots of views but also sections in/near the forest. The wind blew hard around our ears where there were no trees. The renaturation area was particularly beautiful. Apart from a few "long stretches", the path was beautiful. There were no real highlights in our opinion. Conclusion: You can do it, but you don't have to.

Relaxed tour with refreshments. No major climbs, many beautiful views.

Today we went on a home track, the Antoniusweg around Ellscheid and the Mürmes nature reserve. The path itself is not very spectacular, but offers some beautiful views of the Eifel landscape and is very inviting for relaxed hiking. With the Maarmoor Mürmes, the renaturation project Mittelweiher, the sparse mixed forests and the Ellscheid windows you get pure enjoyment of …

With some heights, which sometimes go up and sometimes down, a certain level of fitness is also required. With a length of almost twelve kilometers, the difficulty of …

What a nice round!

Lots of great places to take a break.
Great views!
NSG Mürmes the highlight!
In between I thought I would be blown away....🌬


There are 80 maars in the Vulkaneifel, 10 are filled with water, some have become moors, such as the Mürmes, the rest are dry maars.

The Vulkan Eifel is always worth a hike! Picturesque landscape and an indescribably beautiful view 🍄🏵️☀️. Nice to walk, so let's go 😽
