Geographically, Bennhausen is located about 60 kilometres southwest of Frankfurt am Main and is surrounded by idyllic vineyards and green forests. The region thus offers a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking or cycling, which are especially recommended in spring and summer.

One of the tourist attractions is Bennhausen Castle, which was built as early as the 16th century and now serves as a museum. Here you can go on a journey through time and learn more about the history of the place.

Another highlight is the "Donnersberg" lookout tower, which at 687 metres high offers a breathtaking view over the landscape. It is especially beautiful here in autumn when the leaves turn colourful.

Bennhausen also has a lot to offer culturally: In August, the annual "Bennhausen Wine Festival" takes place, where regional wines can be tasted - an absolute must for every wine lover!

Those who like good food will certainly get their money's worth in the local inns: Be sure to try the regional specialities such as Saumagen or Pfälzer Leberknödeln - a culinary experience!

And what to do in bad weather? How about a visit to the nearby town museum in Kirchheimbolanden or a trip to nearby Worms, where you can visit the famous cathedral?

So there are many reasons to visit Bennhausen - whether for a day trip or as a longer stay. This Travel Guide promises to be worth the trip and showcases the best the region has to offer!

    Wir haben uns mangels guter Beschilderung auf dieser eigentlich recht schönen Tour tatsächlich 2x verlaufen und haben die Strecke damit auf rund 18 km erweitert. Ja, das geht. Aber empfehlenswert ist die Strecke auf jeden Fall.

    Sehr schöner Rundweg, auf jeden Fall sollte man das Puppenstubenmuseum in Jakobsweiler besuchen, ist sehenswert.

    Schöne Tour, gerade im Frühling, weil man viele blühende Obstbäume sieht. Eine hilfreiche Ergänzung (damit man nicht immer auf's Smartphone gucken muss): der Weg ist größtenteils mit einem Kleeblatt markiert. Nur auf dem Abschnitt zwischen Bennhausen und Dannenfels muss man dann dem Weg Nr. 3 folgen.

    Mittlerweile ist die Rundwanderung mit dem Kleeblatt auf gelben Grund sehr gut ausgezeichnet. Karte ist nicht erforderlich. Die Tour punktet mit tollen Aussichten auf die Rheinebene. Das Puppenstubenmuseum und die Kirche mit ihrem Wehrturm in Jakobsweiler sind einen Besuch wert. Wer vorher für die Besichtigungen einen Termin vereinbart, wird mit viel Liebe zum Detail informiert. Man sollte dann ca. 1 - 1 1/2 Stunden einplanen. Wir haben den Start auf den Wanderparkplatz an die Gaststätte Haus Wildenstein verlegt und sind gegen den Uhrzeigersinn gelaufen.
