Luchspfad, Quiet Forest route, premium walk, Dahn (Pfalz)

Short varied forest hike near Dahn. Especially beautiful is the section through the idyllic, scenically very beautiful Seibertsbach valley. The name of the route is program here. A hike in the "quiet forest" that is rarely frequented. Thus, the tour is a nice alternative when the well-known routes in the region are overcrowded. Whether this will remain so for long is questionable. Since 2023 the route has been classified as a premium walk under the name Luchspfad. Path type: 95% natural paths, alternating between forest trails and forest roads. Orientation: almost continuously so well marked that experienced hikers can do without maps and GPS. Even though the route is well marked by its sign, you have to pay attention to the route. Because... sections also run along the Kaletschkopf route, the Hohle-Felsen route and the Eyberg route, so these sections are marked twice or only have the signage of the named other routes. This should be noted. From the trailhead, initially walk westward in the Moosbach valley. At Frog Rock, turn southwest into the Langen valley. After the previous route mostly followed the same geographic elevation, the path ascends in the last third of its course through the Langen valley. After a short ascent, continue southeast and then descend into the Seibertsbach valley. You can also follow the trail sign "to the rescue farm." The path now turns northeast and reaches the valley floor of the Seibertsbach valley. At Kühwoog, turn sharply left and follow the trail sign to the PWV hut Dahn. Past the hut and the Elwetritsch rock, you reach the starting point after a short distance.
