Weyher in the Palatinate

Highlight • Settlement

Very nice wine village with stunning views of the Rhine valley. The approach from Modenbachtal towards Weyher and then the exit to Rhodt under the Rietburg. Glorious. Short stop is mandatory.

Kohlplatz Picnic Area

Highlight • Rest Area

There are a sufficient number of tables and benches at this intersection. Unless there's a whole bowling club on the go, you'll be able to take a break here.

The Ramburg above the Dernbachtal is easy to hike and therefore perfect for families with small children. Next door can be strengthened at the Ramburgschenke typical Pfälzer home cooking and Rieslingschorle.

Nice route near Edenkoben. Lots of single trails, few hikers, various places to stop for refreshments. Everything was perfect. The weather was OK too, temperatures were still bearable, 8 to 15 degrees, so the three-quarter length trousers were the right choice.
