Witches of Hexenklamm

Highlight • Gorge

On the route through the gorge you can often discover witches in various places. But please also pay attention to the path, because it is narrow and steep.

Hexenklamm Stream

Highlight • Gorge

Along the last section of the Hexenklammrunde, the path comes up with a quaint stream that offers dogs and children a welcome change before going steeply up the mountain.

In dry weather the tour is relatively easy, after several days of rain the path was unfortunately a bit slippery.

The gorge is impressive and offers a bit of adrenaline with its narrow and slippery paths.

Was much more fun than shopping 😉

"A premium trail whose extraordinary sights give it its name. Short and sweet, the circular tour leads over heights with sensational panoramic views over Pirmasens and neighboring France, through water-rich valleys to the legendary Hexenklamm.

This legend tells of a wagoner who, loaded and probably a little drunk, drove through the gorge towards home at night. Witches played a cruel …

A very beautiful route with natural paths, the trail through the Hexenklamm Gorge is beautiful, with benches to enjoy and small waterfalls to linger in. There are also a few little check-in moments 😅
