プファルツ選帝侯のおすすめ登山＆山歩きルート

地元の人々の間では、ビショフスクロイツの代わりに「ヴェッタークロイツ」と呼ばれることもよくあります。 頂上までの最後の約100mはマウンテンバイクで走破可能ですが、年配のサイクリストは、多くの木の根や石があるため、自転車を押して進む必要があるでしょう。

長い登りの後、カルミットに登ると、素晴らしい景色が広がります。

"The church's foundation stone was laid on May 23, 1954. It was named after the reformer Martin Bucer (1491-1551). Inside the church is a bronze cross created in 1977 by the sculptor Gernot Rumpf. Grapevines have broken through the cross at a kind of predetermined breaking point."

The view of the Rhine Valley is fantastic. You can see the Odenwald and the Black Forest from here.

The Kalmit is located near Maikammer in the Southern Wine Route district of Rhineland-Palatinate. At 673.64 meters above sea level, it is the highest mountain in the Palatinate Forest. From up here, you have breathtaking views of the Rhine plain, the Odenwald forest, and even the Black Forest. Simply amazing 🤩👌🏼. There's also a rest hut up here where you can enjoy delicious food 😋👍🏼.

very good food, nice host.

At the parking lot in front of the Kalmithaus, the slippery road ends: the asphalt simply ends, as if someone had said, "Okay, adventure begins here!" From there, things get really tricky for road bikes – rough gravel, small stones, and the constant fear of getting a flat tire. You briefly consider whether you love your bike... or just ride over it. But honestly: The last stretch is still worth it. It's short, nasty – and at the top, the reward is complete. A view to fall in love with, a clear view all the way to the Odenwald (if the mist is kind), a cool drink from the hut, and that muscle cramp you trust. Perfect. If you've made it this far, you'll still make it all the way to the top. And afterward: roll down the gravel, let off some air (from your lungs, not the tires), and proudly say, "Kalmit? Sure – I made it."
