"A black ax on a yellow background marks the 10.4 km tour through parts of the eponymous Ganerben forest district, which the German Hiking Institute awarded in August 2019 as a premium circular hiking trail.

Much of the past has been preserved on the Ganerbenweg, including old boundary stones, legendary rock formations and the 36 m highest of the many towers built in honor of Bismarck in the Palatinate, whose viewing …

August 8, 2025,🚶🏼‍♀️Ganerbenweg - hier wohnt ein Riese, oder doch Wolverine?

Dear Komoot users, hiking friends, and fellow travelers,

This hiking trail in the Vorderpfalz near Bad Dürkheim is well known to hikers in the Palatinate. It was great for me today, as there was plenty of shade, little elevation gain, and a refreshment stop at the end at the Lindemannsruh hut.

December 22, 2021,dehäm in de Palz - Ganerbenweg bei Leistadt

Starting point: Lindemannsruhe (can be entered directly into the navigation system) / Bismarck Tower
There is a large hiking car park opposite the forester's lodge Lindemannsruhe.

Very nice route through the middle of the forest. The varied landscape makes the hike very entertaining. The rock formations provide a feeling of adventure and invite you to make many stopovers.

I just realized that I didn't publish my tour last week. We walked the Ganerbenweg, starting from the parking lot at the Lindemannsruhe forestry lodge...past devilish benches and soup bowls. It was a nice tour, which was a bit crowded on Sundays due to the popularity of a premium hiking trail, at least up to Ungeheuersee. You can walk... but …
