June 23, 2024,Höhenweg Münchweiler an der Rodalb🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶

The high trail near Münchweiler has been on my list for a long time and today was the day. Unfortunately, the tour is to be re-signposted and the original old green H trail marker can no longer be found, let alone the new marking! Very annoying and so we struggled through. We had reinforcements from a friend who knows the …

The beginning of the tour had initially disappointed us a bit, things didn't go well on the gravel road. But then on the Kurzelberg the first panoramic view of Gräfenstein Castle and the great mountains of the Palatinate Forest. Here was the first big break, it was so nice and quiet up here.
Now the path became more beautiful, the …

You can run through it quickly 🙈 The route wasn't my cup of tea at all, and I won't do it again. Only wide paths, some of which were even specially graveled. The nice paths were few and far between. My highlight was definitely the otters; they were truly cute animals. I watched them for quite a while ❤️

Today, E. and I went out for the first time from Münchweiler (Rodalb) – on a very beautiful, varied hiking trail:

We particularly liked

> the magnificent, old mixed forest (partly in the Palatinate Forest "core zone")

> the beautiful rest stops, mostly with great views (e.g. at the Bauhalder Felsen and the small Wildsaufelsen)
