August 24, 2025,Eifel-Wanderung Wasserfall, Wacholder & Vulkane 🇩🇪🌲🥾

Yesterday I was out and about in the Volcanic Eifel again with a great group😍
We started from the hiking car park near the Dreimühlen waterfall in Nohn. Our circular route, however, went in the opposite direction, so we saved this highlight for last😊

A worthwhile, great tour with lots of impressions. Also dog-friendly, as there are always drinking oases along the way...! I wouldn't go to the waterfall on Sundays or holidays, as it's completely crowded.

The route comes from experiencing nature actively.
However, I hiked in the opposite direction so that I could be alone at the waterfall in the morning.

On the way in the volcanic Eifel. From Nohner Mühle over the Hönselberg with its lean grassland and juniper bushes. We continue through dense forest, over meadows with a view to the crater on the Ahrensberg. It's impressive what volcanoes create and leave behind. A special place of peace and quiet. Our tour takes us further through the slightly autumnal …

This is unbelievably beautiful. The Volcanic Eifel. From Nohner Mühle, follow beautiful hiking trails up with a view of the plateau. Here, the weather is surprising, the ridge path, rare orchids, butterflies and junipers on poor grassland. The route continues through forest passages and lush meadows to Kerpen. A truly idyllic place. I saved the highlight for last. The Dreimühlen …

October 27, 2022,Vom Vulkan Arensberg zum Dreimühlenwasserfall

I've wanted to go to the Arensberg volcano crater for a long time and finally made it happen today.
Since the Dreimühlen waterfall is not far away in this beautiful corner, it was clear to me that I would wash these two goals in one go.
The result is about 19.5 km, 500 meters in altitude, in a really beautiful …

Today, on this beautiful tour, we finally visited two places in the Vulkaneifel that we particularly love.
The rather little-known Arensberg can only be entered through a secured tunnel. Inside, the unique atmosphere of a volcanic cone awaits you, you look at the roots of the trees growing all around, a display board explains the small geological step from volcanism …
