    The start and finish of the Hohe List route is the village square in Ludwigswinkel. The path leads along Landgrafenstraße through the village eastward to the district Schöltal. We reach the natural swimming lake Schöntalweiher. At the Schöntalweiher kiosk, we cross the main road and follow a path to the bee learning station. Uphill, first on a forest road, then on an enchanted path, we climb the Biesenberg. A wide, level path leads us to the Zigeunerfels. Over a narrow path, we change to the way to the Reitersprung. The path then leads us to the “Hohe List.” The former forester's house is now a popular PWV hiking hut. Refreshed, we head slightly uphill again to the seven chestnuts. From here, the Pirmasenser path leads through the “Felseneck” into the Reißlertal. We reach the “Saarbrunnen,” the source of the Saarbach (Sauer). After crossing the road, our path leads past the Mummelsee through the Reißlertal to the Reißlerhof and back to the Schöntalweiher and Ludwigswinkel.

    Safety information

    Especially in autumn, it should be noted that fallen leaves on the ground can conceal unevenness, roots, stones, or holes in the path. After thunderstorms or heavy rain, trees may still fall or branches drop afterwards. Particularly in adverse weather conditions, natural paths can be muddy and slippery in sections. Not all rocks or cliffs are secured with ropes or railings. Surefootedness is required in places. You must expect impairments of this kind when hiking. If you believe certain sections are impassable for you, you should bypass them. Despite the "unmistakable" marking of the premium hiking trails, we recommend always carrying a suitable hiking map for safety so that, for example, in a thunderstorm or emergency you quickly find a safe area.

    NOTE:

    We strive to announce all closures caused by forest work or hunting societies on this platform. Nevertheless, there may be situations where trails are closed, and we might not have been informed. If you encounter closures or detours on site, please observe the instructions for your own safety.

    Roadbook

    The start and finish of the Hohe-List route is the village square of the Luftkurort Ludwigswinkel. The path leads along Landgrafenstraße through the village eastward to the district of Schöltal. We reach the natural swimming lake Schöntalweiher, which invites us to a refreshing swim in summer as an EU bathing water. At the Schöntalweiher kiosk, we cross the main road and now follow a path to the bee learning station. Uphill, first on a forest road, then on an enchanted path, we climb the Biesenberg. A wide, level path leads us to the Zigeunerfels. Over a narrow path we change to the way to the Reitersprung. According to legend, a Cossack chased by his enemies jumped here with his horse into the abyss. The hoof prints on the rock can still be seen today!

    The path then leads us to the "Hohe List." The former forester's house is now a popular PWV hiking hut, which invites us for a hearty meal on Saturdays and Sundays. Refreshed, we head slightly uphill again to the seven chestnuts. From here, the Pirmasenser path leads through the "Felseneck" into the Reißlertal. We reach the "Saarbrunnen," which is the source of the Saarbach (Sauer). After we have crossed the road, our path leads past the Mummelsee through the Reißlertal to the Reißlerhof and back to the Schöntalweiher and Ludwigswinkel.
