Annweiler - Naturparkrundweg 16 zum Wasgaublick
Circular hiking trail past the Asselstein to Wasgaublick
The trail starts at the Rehberg hikers' car park. Cross the Trifelstraße in the direction of the Klettererhütte and walk past the hut to the Asselstein. Once the Asselstein has been circumnavigated, the Trifelsstraße is crossed again. The path zigzags uphill parallel to the Richard Löwenherz path. Then follow the wider forest path to the right until you reach the Willy-Achtermann-Hütte. At the hut, turn left and hike to Wasgaublick. Here you have a magnificent view over the southern Pfälzerwald.
From Wasgaublick, the trail zigzags downhill. Continue on the wider forest path to the left. Shortly before Trifelsstraße, a narrow forest path leads downhill. From Trifelsstraße, take the same path as on the way there, past the Asselstein to the climbers' hut and then back to the car park.

Klettererhütte am AsselsteinSafety information
In general:
Especially in autumn, also be aware that leaves lying on the ground can hide bumps, roots, stones or holes in the path. After thunderstorms or rainstorms, trees can still fall over or branches can fall down afterwards. Especially in adverse weather conditions, muddy and slippery passages can occur on natural paths. Not all rocks or precipices are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is required in places. You have to expect this type of path impairment when you undertake a hike. If you are of the opinion that certain sections of the trail are not passable for you, you should avoid them.
NOTICE:
We endeavour to announce on this platform any closures that occur due to forestry work or hunting parties. Nevertheless, there are situations where hiking trails are closed and we may not have been informed. If you unexpectedly encounter a trail closure or diversion, please follow the instructions for your own safety.

Equipment
For our hiking tours we recommend the following equipment as standard:
- Sturdy shoes
- Clothing suitable for the weather
- Sun and rain protection
- Sufficient supplies of food and drinks, as there are not always refreshment stops or shops available or open everywhere.
- Even though the paths are very well marked throughout, it is always advisable to carry a suitable hiking map for safety reasons, so that you can quickly find your way to a safe area in the event of a thunderstorm or emergency, for example.
