Schiessentümpel

Schiessentümpel
Beidweiler, Luxembourg (LU)
Part of the Black Ernz river, the Schiessentümpel cascades over a large boulder, and splits the flow into a trio of clear streams before they collect again at the bottom of the falls. The water is split due to 3 long grooves that have been eroded into the boulder over the ages, making it look like a giant hand is allowing the water to sieve through its fingers. This happens at the bottom of a small ravine, also carved out of the rock by the ages of water flowing over its surface, leaving 2 sheer walls on either side of the fall.
