Hiking trails around Weisenheim am Berg

Length and metres of elevation: <=> 6.8 km ▲▼136 hm

Family-friendly hiking trail to the Ungeheuersee (monster lake). A tour with few, but pleasant climbs, beautiful forest passages and - not to forget - the numerous "Baenkel" along the way.

A "Baenkel" is what the Palatinate people say to a (sitting) bench. This already gives the hint to the numerous resting possibilities, which line the route from the edge of the forest to the Ungeheuersee. On pleasant forest paths you can comfortably walk at your leisure to the lake, stop there at the Palatinate Forest Association hut and or take a break at any time along the way on a "Baenkel".
