Natural hiking trail to the Dreimühlen waterfall near Nohn, Rhineland-Palatinate
The Dreimühlen waterfall is one of the most fascinating and popular waterfalls in the Eifel and has also been declared a natural monument. It was created by the carbonate tributaries of the Ahbach. A special leaf moss and diatoms ensure the constant growth and formation of new sintered rock in which precipitate lime is bound.
Since the bridge over the stream no longer stands, the water must be crossed on stones. This can be easy or difficult depending on the water level and mobility.
You can stop off at the Nohner Mühle.
Highlights:
- Dreimühlen waterfall
- Dreimühlen castle ruins
- Hiking along the course of the Ahbach
