Waldgaststaette Alte Schmelz

Because we wanted to take devastating Pällzisch to us, we were spontaneously dragged by friends from LU to the old melt. It lies with a beautiful beer garden in a relatively narrow deep forested valley on a strongly driven road (motorcycles! . Due to the location it gets cold early and you are happy to get back to the warmer LU in the evening, especially when we were sitting alone in the garden at 8 pm. Liver dumplings, Saumagen, Bratwurst were of normal good quality. Also the usual white wines of the region (Grauburgunder, Sauvignon Blanc, etc.). Interesting was the wild boar sausage (see my photo . Dark color and intense taste towards blood sausage. Not everyone's business, but it doesn't exist every day.

Very recommended.Friendly staff and delicious food

There is a wonderful hiking trail from Bad Dürkheim via Hardenberg directly to the old Melt, but you can also walk from Hardenberg, then it is only 4 kilometers through the magnificent Palazwald along the Isenach on well-developed forest trails. You will then be rewarded with many delicious Palatinate specialities and good wines at really fair prices. The location, the ambience, the friendly service and the delicious food give here the full score and a repetition visit is already planned. Cushion can also drive directly there. (The intervening road block is cancelled) Nearby you will also find several rewarding excursion destinations such as the Bismarckturm, the Hardenburg, the Limburg, the Wachtenburg and the Turnerehrenmal to name just a few.

Founded by Fritz Herbst; also under the successor, daughter Renate Brand, highly recommended.

Absolutely delicious, TIP: combine with a hike!
