Feuerberge der Eifel - „Der Arensberg“

Jul 15, 2025

Zilsdorf

Workshop for families with children "in the volcano"

In addition to an interactive introduction to volcanology and rock science for budding volcanologists, in this workshop we dedicate ourselves to individual accessible volcanoes and what they offer and can be seen in them. We will look for interesting stones and minerals, learn about their differences in colour, hardness and other properties and then know, for example, whether they are of volcanic origin. No question should remain unanswered. This workshop is especially suitable for families with children of school age or older. Parents accompany the children on their explorations in what is for them new and unfamiliar terrain.

Sturdy shoes and (weather) appropriate clothing are recommended. Photo equipment, magnifying glass, container for rock samples are useful.

Price: per participant 8,00 €, per family with children 20,00 €
Meeting point: 54578 Walsdorf (Zilsdorf), car park "Arensberg" Basaltstr
Info/registration required by 4pm the day before: Alfred Graff, mobile 0172 2661284, email: vulkan-ag@arcor.de

Durch die Wacholderheiden zum Hippelsteinchen in Gönnersdorf
Aug 27, 2025

The limestone ridges in the area of the Eifel limestone hollows are known as the Tuscany of the Eifel. The appearance of the landscape with its impressive juniper heaths is very close to the Italian model. Centuries of extensive grazing have created valuable habitats. With a little luck, you can discover orchids and gentians here, or observe colourful butterflies, lizards and slow worms. The highlight of the round tour is the "Hippelsteinchen", a dolomite rock around which numerous legends revolve. Price: € 5.00 per person, € 8.00 per couple, free for children under 10. Meeting point: 54584 Gönnersdorf, Zum Hirdenberg (drive straight on from the B 421 to the car park).
