The Pfrimmweiher is located in the Donnersberg district in Rhineland-Palatinate, not far from the Pfrimm spring in the Sippersfelder Weiher nature reserve. Southeast of the municipality of Sippersfeld, near the hamlet of Pfrimmerhof in the Palatinate Forest Nature Park. The Pfrimmweiher (a small reservoir or pond) is located just a few hundred meters below the captured Pfrimm spring.

The Retzberghütte is located directly on the idyllic Retzbergweiher in Sippersfeld on the edge of the Palatinate Forest and is a popular destination for hikers and day-trippers. The pond and the hut are located near 67729 Sippersfeld (Donnersbergkreis / northern Palatinate Forest). The managed hut offers classic Palatinate cuisine (like Saumagen and Leberknödel), homemade cakes, special dishes on Thursdays, and fresh fish variations on Fridays.
