Leisure time, sports and holidays – all this is possible at Edenkoben. Whether you do a tour on one of the hiking trails that lead through the Pfälzer woods or vineyards, visit one of the museums or just rest on a park-bench, Edenkoben and its countryside offer much that can be explored.
Especially recommended is a visit to the peace monument in the Pfälzer woods from where you have an outstanding view. Since the monument was constructed in 1899 it majestically thrones far above Edenkoben in the woods. You can even take a rest there at the nearby forest restaurant and enjoy a delicious piece of cakes or a decent meal before you start your way back.
