You start from Neuleiningen with a very gentle slope of an average of 2% to Lindemannsruhe. The first section leads through the valley along the Eckbach and, in my opinion, is relatively boring to drive, as this section to Altleiningen is very industrial. Only from Altleiningen does the road meander below the castle on a narrow road through the village, creating a feeling of seclusion and tranquility. In the center of the village behind the Protestant church, the path turns left with a short steep incline in the direction of Höningen. If you have done this you get a very good view of the valley of the Höniger Bach with its meadows and fields. After leaving the Höningen monastery, which is only a ruin, and the village, the narrow road climbs gently up to 488m above sea level. NN. Very nice, winding section with little traffic. Especially at dusk, when rays of sunshine fall through the mixed forest here and there, the Palatinate Forest with its red sandstone cliffs shows itself from its most beautiful side. If you have made it to Lindemannsruhe, you only go downhill to Leistadt, from where you have a beautiful view of the Rhine plain.

Well paved, narrow forest road from / to Lindemannsruhe in the middle of the Palatinate Forest. The road width and quality make you feel like a racing cyclist directly to the Tour de France in Provence offset.
