From the pilgrimage church, you can reach the waterfall along the small Martenbach stream. It's not a big waterfall, but it's very pretty to look at, as it literally rushes down over thick stones for a few meters.

October 22, 2024,Im Tal der Wilden Endert – Ausgezeichnet wandern

I had saved the route for two years. Now it was time, especially since the Ulmener Stollen has been added as an attraction. I chose the downhill route to walk with the water and enjoy the route. There were a few wet areas in between, but otherwise exciting paths. My goal was the Hotel Weißmühle, which the route passes by. …

Our goal was to hike to the Maria Martental Monastery and then take the bus back.
Thinking we'd reached the monastery, we stopped there for a rest.
Only when we asked ourselves whether to go back or continue did we realize …

We started in Ulmen and had therefore already seen the first part (maar, town, castle). Things got new from the Antonius Chapel. The first part of the hike to Cochem had little to do with the wild Endert, it just went through forest and fields. Nice, but not very spectacular. It only gets really rustic from the Napoleon Bridge, where …
