The Rausch Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

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.

March 13, 2022,Von Wallfahrtskirche Martental über die Zickelslei zum Tal der Endert (NAE-Tour 34)
We started today's round from the car park at the pilgrimage church in Martental. In order to avoid a bit of the road at the beginning, we had to look for the path behind the church a bit. Unfortunately, it's only quite unspectacular on asphalt until behind Greimersburg - it doesn't matter, the sun spoiled us and skylarks gave a …

That does something to you. 😇
To start a hike in silence in a special place. Maria Martental has been a place of pilgrimage since the Middle Ages. This morning it was just me and the candles still burning from the previous days.
I would have liked to carry this peace and quiet over the Eifel heights down to the …

Anyone who sunbathes too long in the sun just has to run to the end of the night. 🤣🤣🤣
The Valley of the Wild Ends was beautiful even in the light of the flashlight.
We will go the round again in daylight to be able to rediscover the valley
Sharon, thank you for your nice company!

The plan was to do a sporty 20 km loop with a group. The destination was Endert. It was also the right length. The sporty goal failed due to slippery passages, a very steep descent from the Zickelslay and most of all the photo spots. There were plenty of them today. All in all, it was a great loop.

Very nice route along the Endert. Idyllically located and very pleasant and easy to walk. Encounters with other hikers are rather rare. Unfortunately parts of the proposed route were not accessible and other parts of the route were probably last used in the Middle Ages. That means improvising. Overall a nice experience nonetheless. You should definitely see the Maria Martental …

I found the Endert Valley incredibly beautiful with all the bridges and mills 😀😍
The "official" route is actually 20 km long from Ulmen to Cochem. Further along the Endert River, there are even more mills.


The return route (from km 5) was a complete contrast. Panoramic views, meadows, and wide paths. But also beautiful with the blue sky and …

The tour along the Endert is always an experience 👌
