Spectacular spectacle at the end

Geyser eruption as impressive final act

Dividing line

The geyser eruption in Andernach is probably the most spectacular natural spectacle on the Middle Rhine. During your Museum visit you learned how the phenomenon works. But now it's time for the big show. Until the time of the eruption, you will enjoy the Namedyer Werth Peninsula, where the geyser is located - a beautiful nature reserve right on the banks of the Rhine.

Even from a distance you can see the copper-red stones lying around the geyser. You watch in anticipation as it begins to bubble. Then you hear it bubbling and hissing, and then the time has come. With tremendous pressure, the water fountain shoots 60 metres into the sky. Astonished "Ohhs" and "Ahhs" murmur through the groups of visitors and underline the impressive experience.

You spend around 45 minutes on the Namedyer Werth, of which the geyser eruption itself lasts around 15 minutes. In contrast to its "hot water colleagues", the geyser water in Andernach is only around 20 °C, hence the name cold water geyser. So don't be afraid to get up close.

Nice excursion with a nice explanation. We had a very nice trip to the geyser. The geyser was very impressive to see. Special thanks to the staff, who were very friendly and helpful, and thus made the excursion possible for us (help due to walking disability).

Absolutely recommendable! In an interactive tour, you can learn about the formation of a geyser in a playful way. The absolute highlight is the boat trip to the geyser, where you can see the natural spectacle live.
