You start in the middle of Ulmen. After a short time you will leave the historic town behind you and immerse yourself in the nature around Ulmen. The path first leads you through a forest to the idyllic Eifel town of Meiserich. Then the original valley of the Üssbach welcomes you. You will pass two former mills: the corn mill and the Auderather mill are right on the path. The secluded surroundings of the Nollenbach between the two mills will captivate you with its peace and untouched nature. Back in Ulmen, you can't miss a visit to the Maar tunnel.
A nice tour that you can extend via the Kleine Ulmener Acht HeimatSpur.

⇨ 6.6 km corn mill
⇨ 12.3 km Ulmen Castle
⇨ 12.5 km Ulmener Maar

Maismühle
Highlight • Structure
The corn mill, which was named after its owners, actually consisted of two mill buildings, so it was not small. The mill mentioned above stood on the side facing the Ueßbach and was demolished in 1980 because it was dilapidated. The building, including the barn and bakery on the other side, burned down in 1943 and the charred and uninhabited building gradually fell into disrepair until it was bought by private hands in 1984 and rebuilt.

Behind the village, the kilometer-long Ueßbachtal begins.
The wind rustles the trees 🌲💨, so that the sounds of the nearby motorway soon fade away. In general, I am moving further and further away from the A48 here, and nature soon dominates the scenery and the sound 🦅🌿
