The Schalkenmehren spring
Schalkenmehren
The Schalkenmehren Drees at the Winkelbach had been completely forgotten. In 1990, two committed Schalkenmehren citizens ensured that the Drees was rediscovered and reactivated. It was given a spring catchment, which was renewed once again in the summer of 2020.
The Drees is in the direction of Barninerhof in Schalkenmehren. On the further way you will come to the Winkelbach and there you will find the tapped magnesium-sodium-hydrogen carbonate spring, which bubbles out of the ground at a temperature of about 9 degrees.
You can find more information in the brochure: "Dreese - Mineral Water and Carbonic Acid Springs of the Volcanic Eifel" or here.
