Discovering the Named Natural Features and Terrain of Eifel National Park
Reservoirs
A reservoir is a body of stored water created or substantially modified through a dam, impoundment, excavation, diversion, or other managed water-control system. Although it can become integrated into surrounding landscapes and ecosystems, its form or water regime is materially influenced by human infrastructure. It must therefore remain distinct from a naturally formed lake in generated descriptions.
Peaks
A peak is a named summit or locally highest point on a mountain, ridge, hill, massif, or other elevated landform. Its identity may be defined by elevation, prominence, topographic form, established naming, or its position within a larger mountain system. A peak is the summit feature itself, not automatically the entire mountain or range that contains it.
Rivers
A river is a substantial natural watercourse that flows through a defined channel toward another river, lake, wetland, sea, or inland basin. Its system may include tributaries, distributaries, floodplains, seasonal reaches, gorges, waterfalls, and deltas far beyond any single mapped park relationship. The distinction from a stream depends on local convention, scale, and source usage rather than one universal rule.
