A seemingly peaceful fountain awakens, begins to bubbling. Suddenly, a fountain of 9 ° C of cold water shoots into the sky, for six minutes it bubbles up. The haunted by, the "Brubbel" like the locals call their phenomenon affectionate, is just as flashy.

A seemingly peaceful fountain awakens, beginning to bubble. Suddenly, a fountain of 9°C cold water shoots into the sky, bubbling up for six minutes. Then, just as abruptly, the spectacle is over, and the “Brubbel,” as the locals affectionately call their phenomenon, calms down.

The basis for this natural spectacle is a carbonated spring, one of hundreds in the Eifel region. The people of Wallenborn wanted to industrially exploit these in the early 1930s and began drilling. However, during this attempt, they were met with flying earth and water. They had stumbled upon a chamber where rising CO2 was collected and forcefully erupted to the surface with water.

The fact that the “Brubbel” still spews at such regular intervals can be explained by a comparison: Similar to a shaken soda bottle, the pressure in the underground chamber increases. Eventually – precisely after 35 minutes – this pressure exceeds that of the water column above. Thus, the Wallende Born is born - the cold water geyser in the Eifel.

Adjacent to the Wallende Born is the 3.5 km long Brubbel Path. The information points along the Brubbel Path provide insights into the village life of Wallenborn, the local dialect, and the landscape's characteristics. The Vulkaneifel Path "Hinterbüsch-Pfad" also takes you through Wallenborn on your hike through the Eifel.
