We actually wanted to do a different tour today, but public transport partly thwarted our plans. So we quickly replanned and jumped on the Kalmit-Express and drove from Neustadt up to the Kalmit.
We decided to follow the Weinsteig to Neustadt.

This morning I thought about doing the 5th stage with these weather forecasts - and I did... and it was better than expected, only three short showers; one at the beginning, one during the rest and the last one on the way to the car... 😃
I started at the train station in Neustadt and immediately set about climbing the …

It's Sunday + the sun 🌞 is shining = 🥾🥾☺️

I set off from the Hahnenschritt hiking car park around 9 a.m. at 17.5 degrees Celsius. A light, refreshing breeze accompanied me throughout the …

This day also started gray and foggy. I had actually already resigned myself to keeping my couch company 🙃, until my gaze fell upon two webcams near Neustadt an der Weinstraße... sunshine and blue skies 🤗 ... and just like that, my plans for the day changed 😀
I quickly copied my already well-trodden route, the Hohe Loog-Sühnekreuz tour, packed …

October 7, 2021,5. Etappe Pfälzer Weinsteig Neustadt a.d. Weinstraße - St. Martin

The fifth stage of the Pfälzer Weinsteig led through a beautiful, often path-shaped forest area with large populations of pines, oaks and chestnut trees 🌳🌿🌳. Again and again it went through rocky areas. The Gypsy Rock, Nollenkopf and Hambacher Bergstein are particularly impressive. In the Hohe-Loog-Haus and in the hiking restaurant on the Kalmit you can stop off 🍷🌭 and …
