Rock Formations on the Rodalben Rock Trail

Highlight • Natural Monument

Very beautiful rock formations. You walk right past it. The path is not called the rock path for nothing.

Large rock with a cave, in which there is also a well. There is plenty to discover, not just for children. There are many benches and tables here, and you can have a wonderful rest.👍

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. 😀

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 …

After a visit to the Designer Outlet Zweibrücken, pleasant silence in the evening forest. Spectacular The 2 Caves!

Visit to Rodalben in the Palatinate, first a little round to the bear cave 🐻 with a waterfall, then to WAWI 🍫 and delicious barbecue in the evening 🔥🥩🥓🥗😋

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 🤗.

Through the Langenbach valley to the lower and upper bear caves. The small tour went to the largest valley in the shade.
Badly marked.
Nice rest area in front of the upper bear cave.

Since I haven't been to Rodalben for a while, I decided to hike to the Bärehöhle today. Everything was fine, but above the Bärehöhle there was a fallen tree that unfortunately made it impossible to get through. But otherwise everything was tip-top.
