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.

Castles of Manderscheid

The spa town of Manderscheid is most famous for two medieval castle ruins that stand directly opposite each other on steep mountain spurs not far from the town's alleyways. The massive complexes are separated only by the little Lieser river and a meadow, which in summer becomes a perfect place for a breather while hiking the Eifelsteig trail or for a family picnic with children. On a weekend in August, however, the castles and the meadow are ideal settings for a spectacular festival with quaint crafts, jugglers, jousting tournaments and minstrel singing. In Advent, the Manderscheid Castle Christmas lends the town a special magic. The freely accessible upper castle with its five-storey keep still looks martial today. The lower castle can be explored on guided tours - even at night - or on your own; it only remains closed in bad weather.
