Things to Do  

Sit down and.. do as the Palatiners do :-)

Sit down and.. do as the Palatiners do :-), Forst

 Trekki Says:  Now every local will assure you that this is very much a thing, you should do (rather than place it in the “grab food and drinks” section), as the Palatine local as such is very much living to relax while sipping wine and sampling delicious food. It is something so... 

“Walk the Wine Route”

“Walk the Wine Route”, Forst

 Trekki Says:  This is a must, however my tip title is a bit of a play with words :-) The German word for for route and street are the same = Strasse, but Weinstrasse = wine route refers to a route, while Weinstrasse = wine street refers more to a street, such as in this case Forst’s main...

Weingut Prinz: Cosy and homey – Prinz’ guesthouse

Weingut Prinz: Cosy and homey – Prinz’ guesthouse, Forst

 Trekki Says:  Although I didn’t stay in their guestrooms, I would recommend a stay here, out of many reasons. If they are that much caring with the rooms (and service) as they do in their restaurant, then staying here is be very much pleasant. I’m sure, they do. Also, the toilets of the...

Restaurants  

Der kleine Prinz: Ahh – yummm – bear’s garlic meals !

Der kleine Prinz: Ahh – yummm – bear’s garlic meals !, Forst

 Trekki Says:  Up to now I can only tell about my trip here early April (Easter Monday), late afternoon. It was marvellous weather, which is not really usual for early April (but Easter was early anyhow in 2007). So not many restaurants were open that afternoon or maybe not really prepared... 

Shopping  

You should buy some magic liquid - wine :-)

You should buy some magic liquid - wine :-), Forst

 Trekki Says:  If you like the wine you had at the wineries with your meal – or without meal, you can of course buy them directly from the winery ! Just ask and the people will bring you the pricelist. You can also just go to one of the wineries and sample and buy then (without having... 

Local Customs  

Park un laaf (haha, very much Palatinate!)

Park un laaf (haha, very much Palatinate!), Forst

 Trekki Says:  I found this rather a very much local custom thing than a transport one, although it is about your car. Well….I nearly rolled on the street laughing when I saw this sign, which maybe Germans from other states (than Palatinate) won’t understand. But as I am nearly born but...

How to find this lovely village

How to find this lovely village, Forst

 Trekki Says:  You should not try and drive to Forst along the Wine Route, coming from Bad Dürkheim – as Bad Dürkheim traffic around the Big Vat will drive you nuts (it even made me mad – it was crammed with people and cars early April – so even more full in summer). Take the B 217 instead...

 Forst is one of these tiny villages along Palatine’s Southern Wine Route (Südliche Weinstraße) where it is easy to fall in love with immediately! It has only approx. 800 inhabitants and most of the......
