Directly on the crater of the Pulvermaar, in the middle of the volcanic Eifel, directly at the "German volcanic road" in the heart of the Unsesco Global European Geoparks lies the Vulkanhof. In this unspoiled landscape, the herd of goats in the spacious playpen has plenty of exercise.

To ensure you only get the best cheese here, plenty of time is taken during production: With great patience, utmost care, and traditional handcrafting, the noble goat cheese is made to meet the highest standards. For this, the milk from around 200 dairy goats is combined with natural lactic acid bacteria and natural rennet. This leads to the creation of the “Eifelwürze,” which develops its natural rind over a three-month maturation period under constant independent laboratory supervision.

Enjoy Vulkanhof goat cheese with all your senses: Each cheese is a unique piece, appetizing in smell and visually appealing. In the young goat cheese, you can taste the spring of the Eifel, while the matured goat cheese reflects the primal nature of the Eifel landscape. Also taste the Vulkanhof goat cheese: “Eifelfrische” – “Eifelmilde” – “Eifelwürze” and convince yourself of the high quality and fine taste.

Brand new is the “Eifeleis,” which has already become a much-noticed hit during its development phase. Made from delicate goat milk and homemade goat yogurt, these ice cream creations melt in your mouth and are addictive.

PS: A tour “From the Goat to the Cheese” is offered upon reservation. Open farm tours during the holidays.
