Seven maars in one go! One go isn’t quite right, you need two days. But they’re really something special.

Discover the region

The geographical location of Strohn is particularly impressive - surrounded by the majestic volcanic hills of the Eifel, the village offers breathtaking views of the landscape. The region is also known for its numerous maars, volcanic crater lakes that are well worth a visit.

When it comes to tourist attractions, there is much to discover in Strohn. The famous lava cellar is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the village - here you can explore underground passages and learn more about the history of the lava mining industry. The German Telephone Museum and the local history museum also offer interesting insights into times gone by.

Cultural highlights can also be found in abundance: from traditional festivals such as the funfair to concerts and theatre performances, there is always something interesting to experience. For culinary connoisseurs, we definitely recommend a visit to a local brewery or distillery - here you can taste and enjoy regional specialities.

But it's not just indoors that's good to stay - outdoor activities are not neglected in Strohn either! In summer, hiking trails invite you to explore the surroundings extensively, and in winter you can go skiing or tobogganing on the surrounding hills. It is particularly beautiful along the Eifelsteig trail, which runs through the region.

And what do you do in Strohn when the weather is bad? Don't worry - even then there is plenty to do! A visit to one of the nearby thermal baths ensures relaxation and recreation, while indoor activities such as bowling or climbing ensure that boredom does not arise.

Whether summer or winter: It is always beautiful in Strohn. The best places to linger are certainly the numerous cafés and restaurants with their cosy terraces and views of the picturesque village centre. If you are looking for even more tranquillity, you should definitely take a walk through the idyllic castle park.

All in all, it can be said that for all travellers looking for a quiet but varied destination, Strohn in the Vulkaneifel district is definitely a good choice. This travel guide hopes to welcome you soon!

    Was für eine herrliche Tour! Bin sie gestern bei super Frühlingswetter gegangen und war und bin restlos begeistert von all den Eindrücken. Mehrere Maare, sonnige Wege, Rapsfelder, Ruhe... Die Wege sind meist breit und leicht begehbar bis auf den Abstecher ins Alftal, den man sich aber nicht entgehen lassen sollte und den Pfad oberhalb des Steinbruches (für den es aber eine Alternative gäbe) Bei mir sind es 2O km geworden mit ganz viel Natur und Stille, nur an den Maaren und an der Lavabombe hab ich Menschen getroffen und das an einem Sonntag! Fazit: empfehlenswert

    Es ist eine schöne Runde, die ich schon öfter gemacht habe. Sie lässt sich auch gut abkürzen, wenn mal nicht soviel Zeit da ist oder man weniger gehen möchte. Leider war schon oft das Stück vom Sammetbach bis hoch Richtung Mückeln sehr zugewachsen mit Sträuchern, hohem Gras und Brombeeren. Das trübt den Spass ein bisschen.

    Tolle Tour für MTB oder Trekking Bike . Der Ersteller hat sogar kritische Stellen für Fahrräder im Liesertal so umschifft, daß man nirgendwo schieben muss. Viele sehenswerte Punkte, tolle Aussichten. Strohner Lavabombe und mehr. Gastronomien vorhanden. Ebike von Vorteil Vielen Dank

    Eine wirkliche Top-Tour. Ich habe 1‘900 Hm bei 103 km gemessen. Die spürt man auch, denn es geht laufend rauf: 12 grössere Anstiege. Allerdings alles fernab vom Verkehr auf Nebenstrassen und Radwegen. Tiefe Wälder, einsame Täler und Hochplateaus wechseln sich ab. Ambitionierte kommen auf ihre Kosten.

    Sehr schöne Tour mit einigen schönen Trails und Aussichtspunkten- am Pulvermaar und kurz danach gibt es Wege nicht mehr - Tipp dort kurz auf Straße ausweichen und danach dem Wanderwegzeichen Richtung Strohn folgen. Gefahren am 13.06.25
