Totenkopfstraße

Extremely beautiful, narrow road right through the Palatinate Forest. Perfect in conjunction with the Kalmit increase. Fortunately for motorcycles locked in the summer but she can be quite busy at the weekend. On not so nice days you really have your peace here. Dry pine forests alternate with dense, moss-covered beech trees, while on the way a red sandstone lolls through the vegetation and some hairpin bends and curves over steep slopes are also in there. Last but not least, the road then follows a small, wild stream, where it slowly runs flat.

A cult route in the Palatinate Forest.

The Totenkopfstraße is a 13.6 km long mountain pass road in the Palatinate Forest in the Rhineland-Palatinate districts of Southern Wine Route and Bad Dürkheim. As part of State Road 514, it runs from St. Martin through the Haardt, a mountain range on the eastern edge of the Palatinate Forest, northwest into the Central Palatinate Forest, and finally to Breitenstein. It reaches its highest point at 513.7 m above sea level on the Totenkopf mountain saddle, after which the road is named. The Totenkopfhütte (Totenkopf Hut) is located there.Source: Wikipedia
