Very nicely designed and informative

The sand pit on Heidenberg (alternative name: Kessel von Schwedelbach) is a natural monument in Schwedelbach, a local community in the Kaiserslautern district in Rhineland-Palatinate. The wetland biotope with the natural monument number ND-7335-274 is located in an abandoned molding sand pit on Heidenberg south of Schwedelbach at the end of Mackenbacher Straße. The sand pit is characterized by heavy bush growth and is surrounded by steep sand walls. The biotope complex - a kettle-like excavation - contains a small, species-rich body of water measuring around 10 ares and a fragmentary dwarf shrub heath threatened by strong tree succession. The sand extracted here was delivered to the local foundries and to a brick factory and used to fill a moor near Ramstein. Sand mining was stopped in the early 1970s. The old sand pit was placed under protection in the late 1970s after a population of the rare spadefoot toad was discovered there. Since then, other endangered amphibian species such as the great crested newt and the common midwife toad as well as numerous dragonfly species have been sighted. There is a small viewing platform and an information board at the natural monument.

This seating area is located directly on the cycle path, ideal for stopping and taking a break.

On the cycle path from Kollweiler to Reichenbach-Steegen you have a wonderful view of the hometown with its dead end 🤩

River tour with chic The Glan-Blies cycle path starts in Sarreguemines in France and connects the Bliesgau, a settlement area favored by the Celts and Romans, with the Kuseler Musikantenland and the wine-growing landscapes around Staudernheim on the Nahe. The tour runs for 126 km along the rivers Glan and Blies through varied landscapes, historic small towns and picturesque villages. With few gradients and mostly on its own route, the Glan-Blies cycle path offers a lot of variety. Whether culture such as in the European Cultural Park in Reinheim, in the old town of Meisenheim and on the Disibodenberg or nature in the Schlossberg caves in Homburg, on the Ohmbachsee, on the Elendsklamm, or activity on the bicycle trolley in the Glantal, there are many opportunities for detours and a stop.
