The stream is unobstructed with a gravel bed and individual boulders, Auskolkungen and sole crashes. The upper course meanders and is deeply cut. Partly along the shores are old alder canes and alder-moor-birch swamp forests. At the mouth of the Dreillägertalsperre is a small wet alder mixed forest. from the east, two natural streams run into the Dreläderbach. The southern inlet is a spring stream, which flows through a notch to notch sole valley. The northern Seitenbach lies in a deeper cut erosion channel and has almost no typical baccalaureate vegetation. In the southwest is an area of about 20 hectares with a structure rich soil wet oak with medium to older trees. In addition to spruce forests, there are also small birch, alder and beech parcels.

Forebay of the Dreilägerbach Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

From the wall, you have a nice view of the small basin of the Dreilägerbachtalsperre. Especially in the summer months, the pool looks beautiful when everything is green and the water lilies sprout. In addition, the wall warmed up by the sun serves numerous lizards as a natural sunbed.

View of the Dreilägerbach Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

The first of the many dam walls that we encounter on the Eifelsteig. From the small rest area above you have a beautiful view of the dam and lake. Unfortunately, the dam wall cannot be entered.

November 8, 2025,Herbstwanderung "Struffeltroute" durch Hohes Venn der Eifel bei Roetgen

A beautiful and varied partner trail of the Eifelsteig, which is very well marked throughout:

eifelsteig.de/a-struffeltroute

Right after the free starting parking lot at the waterworks/filtration plant, you reach the impressive remains of the historic Westwall: Numerous concrete elements were built during World War II to impede the advance of Allied tanks. A lasting memorial to the madness of this …
