Lauter Valley Cycle Path: Southernmost Section

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very flat and wide bike path. However, not suitable for road bikes, as the surface is made of very fine gravel. The Lauter River flows by next door. All in all, very beautiful! 😊

December 28, 2024,Schallbrunnerweiher – Mehlinger Heide Runde von Kaiserslautern Hauptbahnhof

In terms of the landscape, it's a beautiful tour with a few nice climbs. You can do most of it away from car traffic.
Today the ground was frozen, so I got through quite well with the Brompton. Otherwise it would have been too muddy. In some places the cycle route led along very rocky paths through the forest. That …

Stopover at Mehlinger Heide, Shaolin Temple Europe, Kaiserslautern Japanese Garden and then garden show. Japanese garden was great with a guide.
Unfortunately, I didn't like the garden show at all. More for children.

Today we were only a small group of four, as another event was taking place and a thunderstorm had been forecast. So, in somewhat windy weather with warm air, we set off for the organic farm. Following the usual paths, we headed through Eselsbachtal - Daubornerhof - Enkenbach to the farm. It was a bit busy, and I hadn't expected …

Somewhat rough path and in the end still very wet...poss. rather for the mountain bike 🚵‍♀️. The rest on a slightly modified route via Mehlingen..Baalborn..Otterberg (the …

Today, the Protestant Collegiate Church had a cycling pilgrimage planned for Whit Monday starting at 1 p.m. So we quickly informed everyone, and there were 13 of us (2 regular cyclists and 11 pedelecs). Pastor Jung quickly led us out of town, but already in the Eselsbach Valley, a fallen tree from the stormy Whit Sunday awaited us. But with …
