Highlight • Summit

The gigantic view alone makes it worth climbing up the ladder (and down again, of course).

Dicke Eiche Natural Monument

Highlight • Natural Monument

At over 300 years old, the mighty oak was a well-known landmark of the Palatinate Forest. In 1994, the oak tree was so severely injured by unknown persons with a chainsaw that the tree died despite all attempts to save it. In 2010 the oak had become so rotten that it had to be felled. Today the tree stands as a memorial in its former place and can still give you a sense of its size and age.

Less than a kilometer from the natural monument Dicke Eiche, lies the hikers' lodge of the same name. Here you can stop for a short break, enjoying a white cheese (Quark) with potatoes and a nice Weissherbst-Schorle.
