It's truly unique here during almond blossom season.

The fragrance of the blossoms and the colors are simply magnificent... Every year from March to April.

Waldgaststätte Pfalzblick – Forest inn with views over the Rhine Plain and vineyards

Here you can eat delicious. Before you take care of your physical well-being, you can still enjoy the view in front of the restaurant. The view here is very nice. You can see quite far into the Rhine plain.

March 16, 2025,Benjental - Stabenberg – Mandelblütenmeile Runde von Deidesheim 😎👍

Another beautiful tour 🥾

With a nice, steep climb that was a bit strenuous!

Sturdy shoes and hiking poles recommended!
The food at the Deidesheimer Hütte is delicious, but the service is also excellent!

May 8, 2022,Von Deidesheim über den Eselsweg und am Mußbach entlang

@Heliz 🍀 provided the template for this wonderful tour with komoot.de/tour/740302394.
I made only minimal adjustments, starting/ending at the train station in Deidesheim and choosing a few paths in Königsbach. After about 13 km we were surprised by the rain, so there wasn't much foresight today, but that didn't bother us much. In any case, my fellow hikers and I …

March 1, 2024,Vom Pfälzer Mandelpfad durchs Benjetal auf den Eselsweg

Nice start to our hiking weekend in the wonderful Palatinate. The almond blossom is already in full swing. So we walked a bit on the Palatinate Almond Path (long-distance hiking trail about 100 kilometers long), and further into the Bentjetal and there on the Eselsweg on beautiful paths (which are certainly wonderful, especially when the heather is in bloom) to …

March 20, 2024,Stabenberg , Gimmeldinger Meerspinnblick 👍

Over hill and dale, roots, rocks, narrow paths, stairs up and down.
A great hike from Gimmeldingen, we really deserve the “after work wine” 💪🍷🍷
The Gimmeldinger Meerspinne is a vineyard in the Palatinate wine-growing region.

October 22, 2022,Benjental - Stabenberg – Mandelblüte Gimmeldingen Runde von Deidesheim

Traveled to the edge of the Palatinate Forest today in the most beautiful imperial weather. Because of a stupid construction site. Parked too early and made 2.5 unnecessary kilometers. ☹️ The. First 4.5 km went steadily uphill. Exhausting for an older gentleman. 🥵
The next 5 km beautifully on forest paths, sometimes very rocky downhill, but very, very nice. Through …

March 16, 2024,16.03.2024 Wanderung geplant von S. Von Deidesheim zur Looganlage und zurück.

Today I was actually just a “follower” on a nice tour. From Deidesheim we went a bit through the Mühltal along the Weinbach past “Schiller's Linde”. There is a forest house there that is managed. From now on our path took us quite steeply up along the Kupferbrunnertal. From now on we went partly along the donkey path. The paths …

At the beginning the hike is very sporty. Very steep. Later very comfortable. There are many places to stop for refreshments - check the opening times beforehand. The paths along the streams are very beautiful.

April 17, 2022,Herrliche Runde durch den Pfälzer Wald von Deidesheim 🫒

A wonderful round in bright sunshine ☀️ in the Palatinate Forest. Very interesting paths (donkey path or the Palatinate Weinsteig 🍷). Some huts on the way invite you to stop.😊
