A wonderful natural spectacle.
The trail leads here directly under a waterfall.
The mighty river wall that suddenly appears in front of you is very impressive.

Neuenkirch Waterfalls

Highlight (Segment) • Waterfall

Beautiful forest section with three waterfalls. There is a barbecue area and in summer, depending on how much water there is, you can also splash around.

It's a special insider tip. There you'll find peace, beauty, and relaxation. There's a barbecue area. There are two short paths to get there. Personally, I preferred the lower left path from the information board.

The Felsenweg is a beautiful, varied alternative to the Talweg. In this area, the path leads directly below a striking rock formation.

You walk or drive behind the waterfall. A second one is developing to the right...it is very wet and muddy and slippery. So be careful not to slip
