Scenic loop in the Palatinate Forest
It starts at the Farrenwiese car park. The hike is not called the panorama trail for nothing - there are always wonderful views of the biosphere reserve and the rocky landscape. The trail is marked with a "P". For an arrival by train to Hauenstein Mitte station, the loop can also be started from there. On the way there is an opportunity to stop. It is nice to cool down in the outdoor pool in the hot summer months.
Highlights:
- Carmelite Convent of St. Joseph
- Wasgau outdoor pool in Hauenstein
- Lanzenfarth rocks
