March 1, 2025,Rehbergturm - Annweilerer Burgenweg – Pfälzerwald

After a long time, Palatinate castles in the southern Palatinate/northern Vosges were on the agenda again. First, we deviated from the Annweiler Castle Trail to the Rehberg Tower. Unfortunately, the climb was not really rewarded because the clouds ⛅️ were still too low. But theoretically, in clear weather, you have a great view in all directions from there.

April 19, 2025,Richard Löwenherz Weg und Burgenweg bei Annweiler im Pfälzerwald

A hike near Annweiler in the Palatinate Forest is like a journey through time and nature at the same time. The day begins with a climb to the Rehberg Tower, one of the highest vantage points in the region. The trail leads through dense mixed forests, past moss-covered rocks and fragrant pines. Once at the top, the tower rewards you …

Following tips and advice from @Angelika &🐅(🌠) and collected tours from @Annemarie Ohmer and @🇺🇦Schlofwandler🕊️, I have put this tour together. Start at the Naturfreundehaus Annweiler. Shady forest paths lead us first to Trifels Castle, which is still closed when we arrive, so we take our first rest at the foot of the Reichsburg... before we continue hiking to Anebos …

Today's hike was a bit wet; it rained on and off. I waited out the storm in the pub.

Today we're repeating the experience with the family. We start at the Annweiler Nature Friends House. Forest paths lead us first to Trifels Castle before we continue hiking to Anebos Castle. We reach this by climbing up next to the rock. It's hard to imagine that this was once a castle, the view of Trifels Castle is spectacular. We descend …

May 14, 2022,Annweilerer Burgenweg und Richard-Löwenherz Weg

Since we have planned our final tour of Bewegungshilft tomorrow with our group "Rheinhessen-Komootianten" from St. Martin, we drove to the Palatinate today. I have planned a route from Trifels Castle that combines the Annweilerer Burgenweg and the Richard-Löwenherz-Weg. We parked in the parking lot near Trifels Castle (€1.50) because I wanted to see the castle first before it might …

My darling has planned a wonderful tour in the Palatinate Forest today.
We started at the parking lot (subject to a fee: €1.50) and went straight up to the historic and great Trifels Castle. The €4.50 entry fee is definitely worth it. The beautiful and well-restored castle with its fascinating 360-degree views is simply worth seeing. Then it went down …
