    The Heidelsburg is a Roman hilltop fortification, very hidden. It was on the Roman road to Bad Dürkheim. Heidelsburg is also known as the oldest forestry office in Germany.

      Many beautiful hiking trails lead past the Heidelsburg ruins.
      You can also reach it in a few minutes on foot from the hiking car park of the same name.

        Approximately 100 meters south of the remains of the castle there's a nice vantage point.
