The old version of a crossing of the river Prüm at the well-known "Irrel Waterfalls" was a covered (roofed) wooden bridge, which was much more modest than the current construction. The new construction was necessary because the heavy rain disaster of July 2021 devastated large parts of the Eifel and washed away the old bridge here too.

In 2021, a century-long flood destroyed a popular wooden hiking bridge 100m upstream.

This suspension bridge was built in 2023 and has been accessible since September 30th.

A hiking car park is located in the immediate vicinity. Both small barrier-free sightseeing tours and short and long, more sporty and rocky hikes are possible from here.

For more information and alternative parking spaces, see the nature park's website.

A worthwhile destination in combination with the great paths along the rocks in the Teufelsschlucht area.

The term waterfalls is historical. Even saying rapids would be an exaggeration compared to the past.

The selfie point in the region, especially since you can almost get there by car
