The hiking season has started again. And we headed towards the southwest of the Palatinate again. We just love being out and about there. As always, it was a great hike.

There was a lot going on at the "Fat Oak", but otherwise we had a lot of peace and quiet in the forest.

March 27, 2026,Burghalderweg Hääschde -again-

We are back in "Hääschde" again and fittingly (and to the current weather) we opted for a shorter tour, which, despite its brevity, shows and includes everything that makes this landscape so appealing.
For us, actually the third time, and let's say it directly: We can take this pleasure tour under our soles again and again.
Beautiful forest paths, spectacular …

Yes, I confess... I like this Burghalder path from Hauenstein...
I/we found this route exciting and interesting back in April.
And for a spring-autumn comparison:
komoot.com/de-de/tour/1519344649

Not as long and as strenuous as the Schusterpfad and yet everything that a hiker's heart desires in a relatively short distance;
Great views like from the Lanzenfahrter Fels and the eponymous Burghalder,
totally …

March 23, 2025,☀️🚶🏼‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Burghalder Weg

We're good at spontaneous hikes, so we decided to head to Häschde on the spur of the moment. The Lanzenfahrter, Burghalder, Wolfsfelsen, and Sattelfelsen are always beautiful to look at. The weather ☀️ was fantastic again, and the trail was beautiful, with a quick pit stop 🍷🍽 in the thick oak tree. A trail we can wholeheartedly recommend.

July 7, 2024,Hauenstein - Burghalder Weg⛅️☀️🙍‍♂️🧙

After a boozy summer night party at Haardter Castle, Sunday was a little shorter...
But at least it was enough to drive to Hauenstein in the afternoon. The Lanzenfahrter Felsen had been on my to-do list for a long time and the first highlight of the Burghalder Weg (we parked at the Wasgau outdoor pool) was quickly reached. The ladder …

August 4, 2023,Burghalder-Weg Hauenstein

Again in the afternoon we started this hike over the Burghalder-Weg in Hauenstein.
A highlight was definitely the Lanzenfahrer Felsen with its ladder and the great view from the pulpit.

All in all a nice hike. At Paddelweiher Hauenstein we bridged a short but heavy rain shower with a cup of coffee and delicious cake.
