Roman roads – a cycling experience

The Roman roads and the surrounding areas really are attractive for tourists.

Discover lots of exciting and interesting things about the roads, the roadside archaeological monuments and the nearby sights and attractions. They all come together to form a unique landscape extremely rich in important reminders of the cultural heritage.

Urfttalsperre

The Urft Dam is the oldest valley dam in the Eifel and is located in the middle of the Eifel National Park. At the time, the dam was planned as the largest structure in Europe. Construction of the 266 m long wall made of quarry stones began in 1899 - in May 1905 the dam was filled with water for the first time. In addition to flood protection and energy generation, the aim of the hydraulic engineering measure was to supply the region with drinking water. With a length of 12 km, a width of up to 1 km and a maximum depth of 52 m, Lake Urft has a capacity of 45.5 million cubic metres. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
