September 14, 2025,Jakobsweiler | Aussichtspunkt Hirtenfels – Blick auf den Pfälzerwald

Today we went up the Donnersberg and enjoyed the view from the Eagle's Arch and the Hirtenfels. It's simply magnificent every time. After the exertion, you're richly rewarded by the view and the peace and quiet on the bench.

The weather was very sweaty at the beginning, but the view was breathtaking and there was a cool Radler at the top of the Ludwigsturm.
With this strength, the rest of the day was easy.

Made a spontaneous short lap on the Donnersberg today. The Ludwigsturm was unlocked again, then there was a mulled wine and the tour could start... 😁
Had great weather caught, cold but nice. If only the sunset had been on "our" side (at the Adlerbogen)... 🤔; but were on the "wrong" side, so to speak...
We just about made it, …
