Circular hiking trail of the Pfälzerwald Nature Park to the Kirschfelsen viewpoint. Suitable for families, and accessible with a stroller up to the Kirschfelsen.
On the opposite side of the Annweiler Forsthaus, we leave the hiking parking lot straight on the hiking trail. A level path leads from the parking lot to the Kirschfelsen. There you have a magnificent panoramic view over the Pfälzerwald, like in the cinema. There is also a shelter there.
We turn our back to the view and turn right into a zigzag path. We hike downhill and follow marking 3 to the next shelter, the Rotsuhlerhütte. Now we turn left and hike back on a comfortable hiking trail to the starting point at the Annweiler Forsthaus.
Those who want to hike a little longer can descend into the Eiderbach valley and discover the original valley with circular trail 5. Another beautiful viewpoint is located on the Eiderberg above the Annweiler Forsthaus on circular trail 4.

Forsthaus Annweiler Schwarzer FuchsSafety information
General information:
Especially in autumn, it should be noted that fallen leaves on the ground can cover unevenness, roots, stones, or holes in the path. After thunderstorms or heavy rain, trees may still fall or branches may drop. Especially in adverse weather conditions, natural paths may have muddy and slippery sections. Not all rocks or cliffs are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is required in places. You must expect such path impairments when hiking. If you think certain path sections are not passable for you, you should avoid them.
NOTE:
We strive to announce all closures caused by forest work or hunting societies on this platform. Nevertheless, there are situations where hiking trails are closed and we may not have been informed. If you unexpectedly encounter a path closure or detour, please observe the instructions for your own safety.

Roadbook
The hike starts at the Annweiler Forsthaus. It goes from the hiking parking lot at the Forsthaus, slightly right into the forest. The level path leads through a bright forest to the Kirschfelsen. Here you should enjoy the magnificent panoramic view extensively. There are also rest areas and a shelter. Those using the barrier-free path hike back the same way from here.
The circular hiking trail leads downhill in a zigzag to the right with the view at your back to the Rotsuhlerhütte, another shelter along the trail. Here we keep left and then continue back on level paths to the starting point at the Annweiler Forsthaus.
