Explored the new Kottenweg near Kottweiler today.
The tour is well signposted and cannot be missed. A few shortcuts are also signposted. There are also enough benches and also a nice rest area at the Jakobsbrunnen. The 30 information boards with explanations of field names and derivation of the German language are very well done. The tour alternates between shady …

Today I was in a completely different corner of the Palatinate 🥾.

At the invitation of the mayor of Kottweiler-Schwanden, I was able to attend the official opening of the "Kottenweg" today. After the small ceremony, we set off through meadows and fields, alternating with shady forests.

A quiet forest and meadow round around Kottweiler-Schwanden. The tour is well signposted from the Sulzbachhalle and leads up and down through shady forest and lush meadows without any major highlights. Worth mentioning are the Johannes fountain, the pentagonal stone and the beautiful views along the way. Unfortunately, there is also a very long stretch of asphalt. If you are …

It's been on my list for a while...the Kottenweg.
The tour begins at the community center in Kottweiler-Schwanden and goes through the community area. The historical field names of the locations are explained on a number of information boards that you pass. So much for general information.
I didn't really warm up with the tour. The route has its lengths …
