October 18, 2024,Obere Bärenhöhle – Untere Bärenhöhle Runde von Rodalben

When angels travel... on the way to Rodalben there was only rain, on the way after the hike there was rain, but during the way there was dry autumn weather, a bit of fog and colorful forest around us. The path starts directly in the forest, a little cold start, rewarded by a great rock with a bench. From then …

From the Rodalben hiking car park, we hiked straight on the Palatinate Way of St. James, first to the impressive Lower Bear Cave and then further up to the even more impressive Upper Bear Cave. From there we went on the rock hiking trail past the Brother Rock and the Old Beer Cellar to the village of Rodalben and there …

Today we went towards Pirmasens.
Watch bear cave 🐻etc.
Unfortunately we had to shorten our route because my little one has probably grown and her shoes were a bit too tight😅. So we decided to cancel.

The area around Rodalben is amazing. Something to admire and look at everywhere.
Surprisingly, there were hardly any people out and about. Maybe it …

Today we were definitely more lucky with the view than yesterday. In the sunshine, as on this wonderful New Year's Day, we were allowed to walk a little bit on the rocky hiking trail in Rodalben. Dear Katja and Daniel, thank you very much for the delicious meal yesterday, the nice evening with you and the nice short hikes 🤗.

I then drove to Rodalben in the southwest Palatinate 😉. I got a first impression by walking to the nearby Bärenhöhle, which was amazing. The water in the cave comes from a spring and is drinkable. A great place 😀. The Bruderfels is also very impressive with its bright colors, it is the landmark of Rodalben. If it doesn't rain …

June 16, 2022,Rodalben auf dem Felsenweg mit Bärenhöhle 🚶🦮🌳🌲🌼🌸💧🌊🐻

The Bear Cave near Rodalben was chosen for our evening walk. With the temperatures, the one with the fur coat should go to the shady side in the forest. The bears already had running water in their den. Yes even a shower! Much to the delight of our Joshi. I also liked the large caves with the small waterfalls. 😀
