    Mountaineering

    The zigzag path on the Potzberg, also known as the Presidential or Snake Path, leads up the mountain in several switchbacks and offers a pleasant incline thanks to its serpentine route. The path owes its name to its characteristic course and the fact that high-ranking visitors, including presidents, used to take this route to the summit.

    Hiking

    The Zickzack-Trail on the Potzberg (also known as President's or Snake Path) in the Westpfalz is a popular, medium-difficulty mountain bike trail with several hairpin turns. It leads in snake-like windings up the 562-meter-high "King of the Westrich", offering a pleasant gradient.
