Active holidays with style and joy
Sometimes all you need is a wonderful hike. Or a bike ride through the vineyards. Or a round of golf with sweeping views. Around the Kloster Hornbach and the Lösch, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to get active – and plenty of moments to simply be still. At your own pace, on your own terms.
Hiking –
find yourself on the open trail
The Palatinate Forest invites quiet contemplation. The hiking trails lead you through nature – and yet also, step by step, a little closer to yourself. With every breath, the everyday falls a little furtheraway. From the monastery gates, routes head out in every direction: through light-dappled forests, past picturesque villages, over gentle ridges with sweeping views. Names like Paradiesgartenweg (Paradise Garden Trail) and Pirminiusweg Trail speak for themselves. Every step draws you deeper into stillness – and eventually back to who you are.
After your hike: soothing water in the “BadeLust” wellness area, soft cushions, and a glass of Riesling. Everything is ready for your next adventure – out in nature or cocooned in comfort.
Cycling –
in rhythm with nature
A light breeze on your face, sunshine on your back, and a smile that just can’t help spreading. Once you start pedalling, you’ll feel it straight away: two wheels and an open road are a recipe for happiness. The routes through the Palatinate wind along vineyards, hills, and fields – and sometimes across the border into French Lorraine. Imagine gliding through the gentle hills, the scent of pine in the air, birdsong all around. Too good to be true? Not here. Just pure, simple pleasure.
Golf –
precision meets panorama
Golf as a form of meditation – in the border triangle, the game, your focus, and the natural surroundings come together beautifully. Grass underfoot, your eye is drawn across manicured fairways to a glimpse of France shimmering beyond the tree line. Golf in the Palatinate and Saarland region means variety with panoramic views – and tranquillity with wide-open space. There are six courses within just a few kilometres of our hotels, each one an experience in its own right.
