The karstified limestone cliffs are the first highlight on the path from the parking lot to the waterfall. Here, the stream has carved its way through the limestone, creating the rock face. The limestone originated as a deposit of dead marine organisms on the seabed of a shallow ocean that covered this area millions of years ago. Later, the ground was uplifted by tectonic processes. Limestone reacts with acid and is therefore dissolved by rainwater and surface water, which is slightly carbonated due to the CO2 in the air. This process creates weathered formations and caves. The formation of the Dreimühlen Waterfall is also related to this process.

The so-called Dreimühlen waterfall is also known as the Nohn waterfall. The name Nohn waterfall comes from the waterfall's proximity to the town of Nohn. The houses on the outskirts of Nohn are only a few hundred meters above the waterfall. Most people talk about the Dreimühlen waterfall, however. The name Dreimühlen comes from a former castle called Dreimühlen. Today, however, only the remains of the walls are said to remain. We looked for the former castle on our trip, but couldn't find anything of it. The waterfall in the Eifel is located between the towns of Üxheim, Kerpen and Nohn. Although the other large towns in the Eifel are not located here, many visitors come here. Some of them travel especially to visit the waterfall. The Dreimühlen waterfall is one of the most visited Eifel attractions. Almost every holidaymaker in the area comes to the waterfall at least once during their Eifel vacation. In addition, many day tourists travel from outside, making it the most visited waterfall in the Eifel. They all want to see the unique natural wonder.

Even if the castle cannot be visited because it is privately owned, its location high above the village of Kerpen is very impressive and gives the beautiful village a certain charm. Kerpen Castle is a so-called spur castle, which lies on a rock or mountain spur, but below the hilltop or the mountain peak, unlike the summit castle, and thus steeply above the valley. It is characterized by a terrain formation that slopes steeply on at least two sides. The place is practically at the feet of the castle. The former owner and famous Eifel painter Fritz von Wille was buried on a hill behind the castle in 1941. For a long time afterwards, it served first as a training center and finally as a rural school center; from 2016 to 2018, refugees were accommodated here. The castle currently belongs to an entrepreneurial family from Bonn and has since been used only for private residential purposes.

The mountain path leads through an extremely barren and beautiful juniper landscape. Loosened up by the Stations of the Cross and peppered with beautiful views of the valley.

A closer look at the castle is definitely worthwhile on a hike through the historic castle town of Kerpen (Eifel). As the former place of work or domicile of the (perhaps most famous) Eifel painter Fritz von Wille, it is also an important stop for those interested in culture.

The approach is a bit steep, but the little effort is worth it. Must be done or seen. Of course, the weather has to play along.

A very beautiful castle, very impressive and certainly the landmark of Kerpen. The castle cannot be visited as it is privately owned, but that is completely fine, you don't have to visit every castle. It's great to hike around the castle and it's also fun to just see the castle.
