June 13, 2022,Zur Burgruine Gräfenstein 🤩🏰🌞

At 30 degrees, like yesterday, we didn't feel like going out 🥵🥵. With a pleasant 23 degrees and a little wind, we wanted to go through the beautiful Zieglertal up to Gräfenstein Castle 😊. The wide path along the Wieslauter is shady and birdsong accompanied us😊 Then we followed a trail steadily uphill, really nice 🤩. The last 500 m …

A wonderful tour (natural forest), which we will definitely do again (if it's not foggy 😉).
We were totally amazed by the Gräfenstein castle ruins.

June 9, 2024,Rotenstein - Wildsaufelsen - Grafenrheinfeld Hütte- und die Wieslauter zurück

A turbulent start, due to my absentmindedness. We didn't want to drive far, so we limited our radius of action. A tour was quickly found near Wilgartswiesen. Okay, we didn't know that one yet. GREAT. When we got to the starting point, we realized: "We've been here before." Okay, replan. Where is my cell phone 😳??? I forgot my cell …

August 7, 2022,Hinterweidenthal > Burg Gräfenstein

For me, the circular hike to Gräfenstein Castle is one of the most beautiful summer hikes.
We started at the train station in Hinterweidenthal and walked in the shade of the trees along the Wieslauter towards Gräfenstein Castle.

The hardest part of the tour was the short climb up to the castle. In order to be able to enjoy the …

June 9, 2024,🚶🏼‍♀️Von Merzalben nach Hinterweidenthal und zurück durchs Wieslautertal

Admittedly, I could have planned it better. All in all, a nice walk, but on the way back from Hinterweidenthal I walked a little over 3km on the bike path. Here I would recommend walking to the left of the Wieslauter on the GR53 with the white-red-white path markings, unless you want to see the Rittersteine, in which case there …

June 12, 2022,Von Hinterweidenthal- Rotenfels- Burg Gräfenstein- Teufelstisch

Today I was out and about in Hinterweidenthal. It was always a leisurely climb to the Rotenfels refuge, then on to the beautiful Gräfenstein castle ruins. Finally, a short detour to the Teufelstisch. The path had only a very small amount of asphalt and partly ran along narrow paths.
