You can only check in at the guesthouse from 3 p.m., so make a quick stop on your journey and explore the Richard Lionheart Trail. The highlight of the route for me is definitely the Rehberg tower. Sensational all-round view that increases anticipation for the days ahead. We were able to enjoy a few beautiful paths and zigzag paths today. …

We walked the Richard-Löwenherz-Weg in Annweiler on the recommendation of friends. It is an interesting path with always new great views where you can take a break and enjoy the view. There are also some beautiful rock formations. It was nice that the climber's hut was open and you can take a break.
I can recommend the tour too.

We've left Mainz behind us and arrived in our daughter's new home. After the bustling city, today we're heading into the nature of the Palatinate Forest and to the tranquil town of Annweiler am Trifels. Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned here in Trifels Castle. Centuries later, we're following the Richard the Lionheart Trail. Anticipation of an exciting tour is high; …
