Gita in bici di un giorno da Hinterweidenthal a Schweigen-Rechtenbach

This ride takes you from the charming village of Hinterweidenthal, nestled in the heart of the Palatinate Forest, all the way down to Schweigen-Rechtenbach, the famous gateway to the German Wine Route. You'll cover about 34.5 km, with plenty of ups and downs—nearly 970 meters of climbing and descending along the way. Most of the route rolls over smooth asphalt and quiet tracks, giving you a pleasant mix of forested paths and peaceful rural roads.

Hinterweidenthal is known for its dramatic red sandstone rock formations—if you’ve got a moment before you start, Tolksmühle and Teufelstisch are worth a peek. The ride itself leads you through lush forests and rolling hills, so expect some good leg workouts on those ascents.

Your adventure ends in Schweigen-Rechtenbach, right at the impressive Deutsches Weintor, where the German Wine Route officially begins. Treat yourself to a glass of local Riesling or a well-earned slice of Pfälzer sausage when you arrive—after all, you’ve earned it!
