On Sunday, May 3, 2026, the Pfalztrail will take place in the north of the Pfälzerwald between Carlsberg and Altleiningen.
Last Friday, we "hiked" a section of the BaseTrail route near Altleiningen. We followed the red and white flags that were already hung along the path for the run.

Last Friday, I decided to go on a shorter hike to the Hellerhütte near my hometown.
I started at the Kaltenbrunner Hütte (closed on Fridays) and took the path through the Finsterbrunnertal, which runs along the Kaltenbrunnertalbach stream. After about 4 km, I was happy to reach the Hellerhütte and stop

Last week I did an easy tour near Kirrweiler, which mostly led along the Kunstpfad.
On the hike through the vineyards, there are several art objects, a great playground, a castle pond, and beautiful views of the Pfälzerwald.
The varied hike is about 5.5 km long in total and I enjoyed it, as the loop is

Forest air, blossoming splendor and beautiful views
Our last hike near Wachenheim is especially beautiful in March, because now (as probably all Palatinates know) the almond trees 🌸 are blooming.
We started in the Wachenheim valley and walked up to the Eckkopfturm.
After a refreshment and the ascent to

On Sunday, we hiked the "Burgenweg" (Castle Trail) circular route near Klingenmünster. The trail begins with a rocky, steep climb to the Schlössel ruins, but then mostly follows well-maintained paths.
From the Kanzel (Pulpit), a viewing platform overlooking the Rhine plain, the trail leads past the Heidenschuh

Last Sunday, we started our hike at the edge of the forest in Wachenheim.
We initially walked to the Mundhardter Hof, but it didn't open until noon. Since we were already there, we decided to continue on.
Via Straus-Platz, we returned to the Poppental valley, where we followed the babbling Schwabenbach

Last Sunday, we hiked from Iggelbach to the Romantic Forest Christmas Market at the House of Sustainability (Johanniskreuz).
I chose Iggelbach as our starting point because it's about a 10 km hike from there to Johanniskreuz, and I wanted to avoid the parking chaos there.
First, we walked through the quiet

On Sunday, I decided to hike to the Weinbiethaus. This time, I chose the path that leads past the Welschterrasse and the Deidesheim Temple. As children, we used to call this path, where we went sledding in winter, "Hoppla-Hop."
Once in the forest, I took a brisk climb up to the Bergstein, which offers

Last Sunday, we hiked from Ilbesheim through the colorful vineyards, via Ranschbach, to the Kolpinghütte Ranschbach.
There, we enjoyed a delicious homemade pumpkin soup (and a piece of cake 😊). The hut also offers a beautiful view over Ranschbach and across the Rhine plain.

Over the Pentecost weekend, we undertook one of my favorite hikes near Hauenstein. We started at the forest swimming pool and walked to the "Dicke Eiche" hikers' lodge.
Along the way, there are several spectacular rocks to admire.
