ディーフェンバッハの天然記念物・トップ20

The wooden beams and planks are gone. Now there's a walkable grating. The last few meters to the waterfall are adventurous, but secured with a rope. The waterfall is impressive 😍

We have seen many waterfalls on our tours and we were very positively surprised that there is such a great waterfall here in the Eifel and the path there is really great... rustic, steep, impressive... sturdy shoes are definitely recommended here... what great highlights do we have here in this region. Simply great!!!

Pay attention to your equipment on the climb. The path is very steep and slippery. If you have dogs with you, only go up if they are well trained, otherwise please don't go up, it's too dangerous. Footwear is the most important thing here.

Caves and a nice rest area with information board

Wonderful, climbing passage necessary to reach the waterfall, so sturdy shoes and sure-footedness are absolutely necessary

Nice VIP highlight with the passage grotto, the waterfall and the Teufelsbrück. Belongs to a hike around Bad Bertrich.

On site you can find out more about the lava flow on the display board, which poured into the Alftal in early times when the volcanoes in the Eifel were still active. This is where the longest lava flow in the Eifel came from.

When workers in the Wartgesberg quarry carry out an explosion in 1969, they are amazed! A round chunk of five meters in diameter broke away from the middle of the quarry wall. A lava bomb? Even experts are not sure at first, because it is difficult to imagine that the volcanic forces of the Eifel were sufficient to throw 120 tons through the air. A core drilling brings clarity: During the eruption of the Wartgesberg volcano, a piece of rock broke loose from the crater wall and rolled into the vent. Similar to a snowball, which gets bigger and bigger as it rolls down a slope, the chunk rolls through magma that sticks to its surface. With the next eruption, the ball is ejected again and then rolls down again. This is repeated a few more times until the sphere is buried by the crater wall, only to reappear many thousands of years later.
