Location

In the Pfälzerwald near Frankweiler.

Participants

DLichti and some members of his family.

Plans

Take the car to Frankweiler, go for a walk to the Orensfels, find the location on the way back.

Expedition

We reached Frankweiler at around 14:00 in the afternoon. It was a chilly day with low clouds and a mix of rain and snow.

We passed by the Landauer Hütte near Neuscharfeneck castle. From there, a path leads up to the Orensfels. Up in the hills, the forest floor was covered by the first snow of the winter.

Near the Orensfels, there is a paraglider launch site. From there and from the view point on the rock, there was a nice vista over the Queich valley. Especially with the sun peeking through the clouds at some moments.

We took a different way back to Frankweiler. Just before arriving at the small town, we had to go down a hillside to find the exact location. All of my family wanted to follow me and we did it with only some minor accidents. I had to climb up and down a bit until I was satified with my position.

At around 16:00, we came back to the place where we had left the car and drove home.
