Due to the rather modest weather forecast, we went to the Donnersberg (687m), 🔝 of the Palatinate today. We started in Dannenfels. First, we go to the Adlerbogen, another landmark on the mountain. The view reaches across to the Palatinate Forest. On beautiful trails with many sculptures, we go up to the 🅿️ at the Donnersberg. Here we turn onto …

We have been to the Palatinate many times, but never to the highest mountain in the region - the Donnersberg with its impressive Eagle's Arch, which we had only seen from photos. Today the opportunity arose as it was on our route and we took it.
As our friend @👣Albert Schäfer🚴‍♂️ lives not far away, we asked him if he …

October 21, 2023,Auf den Spuren der Kelten von Dannenfels. Eine Erkundungstour in der Pfalz

Today we want to follow in the footsteps of the Celts, who settled in the Palatinate under Caesar in 19 BC and built protective walls on the mountaintop. Donnersberg, the highest elevation in the Palatinate (687 m), is also interesting. It began around 285 million years ago. About 20 million years ago, the mountain was an island in the warm …

Autumn hike to the Celtic hut on the Donnersberg, past the Adlerbogen, through a colorful forest. Stop for a 'Pfälzer Teller' - that's a must, and then a good herbal schnapps from Schmittshausen (Elwetritsche Schnaps). You can find numerous mushrooms here, which don't always look delicious, but can all go into the cooking pot - if you know what you're …

We hiked over the Celtic Wall to the Donnersberg, of course past the Ludwigsturm, the reconstruction of a Celtic wall, the Hirtenfels, …
