Pfalz
Feel good on holiday in the Pfalz
Four holiday regions in the Pfalz invite you to spend your vacation under the sun and stars. Camping fans will be attracted to the warm slopes along the 85-km-long German Wine Road, while the Pfälzerwald nature park, 180,000 hectares in size, features the biggest unbroken area of forest in Germany. The lovely Rhine valley plain tempts visitors to ramble among vineyards, orchard plantations and vegetable fields.
More than half of the region’s campsites are open all year round. Many of them offer large-sized motorhome pitches. From here you can make unforgettable trips with the whole family, e.g. into the Pfalz hills which include among others the Donnersberg, 687 m high, whose lofty plateau was inhabited as long ago as Celtic times.
