Frauenwoog Picnic Area

Highlight • Lake

Great place, but everything is privately owned. The many signs point this out.
Don't know if the owner would agree to that.
We respected that and looked for another way to take our snack break.

Seehofweiher

Highlight • Lake

The kiosk at the Seehofweiher is located directly on this pretty little lake. Between the kiosk and the pond there is a very nice sunbathing area that can be used …

October 3, 2024,Vom Seehof zum Hirzeckhaus

A leisurely round trip without any great elevation gain from the Seehof, below Berwartstein Castle. And there is also a rustic place to stop for a refreshment at the Hirzeckhaus.

Again a nice tour in the Palatinate Forest near Dahn. The Bärwartstein Castle is the only inhabited castle complex in the Palatinate from the 12th century, well preserved, proud and beautiful. From here we start our round tour and it was another beautiful hiking day🌞😊
